A food processing machinery manufacturer has moved into a new factory in Derbyshire following a £1.2 million investment.

Millitec Food Systems, which designs and manufactures food processing machinery and robotics, has taken over a 20,000 sq ft site in Draycott.

Founded in 2005, the firm is a world leader in its field, making a range of food processing machinery, including ultrasonic cutters, depositors, conveyors and specialist robotics, supplying to customers across the globe.

As a result of record sales and significant growth, Millitec scoured the area for a suitable commercial property, identifying Draycott as the ideal location for infrastructure, transport and employability.

The move is expected to bring an additional 12 jobs to the area, including roles for mechanical design engineers, machine vision/robotics specialists and CNC machinists.

The new Derbyshire site boasts a dedicated design studio with state-of-the-art design equipment, 3D print studio, high-care robotics lab, clean room, CNC machine shop, blast room and state-of-the-art laser cutting machinery.

The investment was supported by the Invest in Derbyshire service.
