The Palaszczuk government today announced a 1 million dollar deal with Australian medical supplies company Metagenics to build a tablet making an coating facility within its Northgate factory.
Queensland Deputy Premier Steven Miles says this project will create new jobs for Queenslanders and enable the state to produce tablet-based medicines locally, rather than relying on international supply chains.
Metagenics is a company which originated in Queensland and specialises in supplying natural medicines in Australia and New Zealand.
