Belfast-based gym equipment manufacturer BLK BOX is expanding to a new 140,000 sq ft manufacturing and distribution centre in Greater Belfast.
The company, which in November 2020 announced 16 new jobs and a £2m investment in laser cutting equipment and a state-of-the-art paint line, is now set to invest over £1m to expand to the new premises in Newtownabbey.
Founded eight years ago by Belfast entrepreneur Greg Bradley, BLK BOX is currently headquartered in Titanic Quarter where it employs over 70 people.
The company will move to its impressive new facility at Monkstown Industrial Estate over the next few months.

BLK BOX manufacturers strength and conditioning equipment for a range of customers and specialises in the design and fit-out of training facilities for major brands and sports teams such as Adidas, PureGym, Irish Rugby, Arsenal FC and Kerry GAA.
Gregory Bradley, Founder and CEO of BLK BOX said: “Our new base in Monkstown will provide us with the space we need to grow now and into the future. It will also enable us to create the kind of distribution centre we need to fill our growing consumer sales in the UK, Europe and further afield.
“It will also help BLK BOX continue to be a great place to work as we invest in creating a facility that our team can be proud of and where they can continue to deliver world class work."
