The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) recently announced that Brooklyn Park will be welcoming a Cirtec Medical Corporation.

The expansion to Brooklyn Park will create approximately 200 jobs with an average pay of $22.89 per hour, meanwhile retaining their current 350 Minnesota-based employees, according to a press release from Minnesota Employment and Economic Development.

“With the support of the State of Minnesota, DEED and the City of Brooklyn Park, this new facility will further expand our design, finished device assembly and sterilization capabilities while ensuring we have the capacity to support our customer’s growth,” said Brian Highley, Cirtec CEO.

Cirtec Medical is headquartered in Brooklyn Park and has facilities around the world. They lead the industry in medical devices.

“Cirtec is part of Brooklyn Park’s emerging medical technology and manufacturing corridor that creates life-saving medications, technologies and devices that are distributed throughout the world,” said Mayor Jeffrey Lunde. “The city is thrilled that Cirtec, like so many companies in the city, are choosing to grow in Brooklyn Park.”
