The meat processing and marketing organisation works on behalf of Namibian farmers and the two-year \u20ac300,000 contract will involve six separate MeatCo sites in the Sub-Saharan country.<\/p>\n<p>The software company, which is celebrating its 10 year anniversary in 2014, was set-up with the support of the Fingal Local Enterprise Office and the company\u2019s development continues to be supported by the Department of Jobs through Enterprise Ireland here and overseas.<\/p>\n<p>It develops and exports factory floor Data Capture, Production Reporting and Traceability software systems to leading meat and food processing companies around the world.

Today\u2019s announcement that Emydex, an Irish-owned company which has grown with the support of the Fingal Local Enterprise Office and Enterprise Ireland, is expanding further and creating 20 additional jobs is a great boost. I congratulate them on this project and wish them every success for the future\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>According to The CEO of Emydex Technology, David McMahon, the company is benefitting from export-led growth in the Agri-food sector. He said: \u201cThanks to the solid growth in Irish food exports, there is a corresponding growth in demand for more sophisticated and robust software systems for production management, reporting and traceability. Responding to this growing demand, we will be doubling our workforce over the next 18 months, recruiting twenty highly skilled software programmers to work in our three main operating divisions in Dublin. Alongside the country\u2019s reputation for high quality food processing, Ireland is also becoming better known for its food processing software capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Originally founded in 2004 by Redmond Burke, now a Non-Executive Director, and James Grennan, Emydex Technology\u2019s Product Director, the company received feasibility and employment grants from the Fingal Local Enterprise Office and more recently, continues to be supported by Enterprise Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>Recruitment is already underway for the software programming positions, which will be based at Emydex Technology\u2019s Blanchardstown headquarters in Northwest Business Park. Of the new specialist roles announced today, ten will be hired immediately, with the remaining ten to be recruited over the next eighteen months.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/business\/economy\/emydex-technology-to-create-20-software-jobs-in-dublin-1.1812322\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3976\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emydex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/irishtimes.png\" alt=\"The Irish Times\" width=\"240\" height=\"23\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jobs news coincides with Namibian deal for Irish Software Company.
