Brookfield Immucor, Inc. Expansion Means 64 New High-Skilled Jobs

BROOKFIELD -- Immucor, Inc., a global leader in transfusion and transplantation diagnostics that facilitate patient/donor compatibility, is expanding its operation in the Town of Brookfield, located at 20925 Crossroads Circle.

The company will invest $1.58 million in facility upgrades and new equipment, and expects to add up to 64 new employees.

Most of the new hires will be highly skilled technical specialists, such as R&D scientists and chemists. These capital and staff investments will enable Immucor to significantly increase sales of products manufactured at its Brookfield location, more than half of which will be sold to overseas customers.

With this move, Immucor’s Brookfield subsidiary will be the manufacturing and R&D hub for Immucor’s transplantation diagnostics business.

Under the terms of the agreement with WEDC, Immucor will be eligible for up to $480,000 in Business Development Tax Credits over the next three years. As is the case with all WEDC awards, the actual amount of credits received will be contingent upon full-time job creation and capital investment during that time.

“We are proud to have a dynamic company like Immucor choose to expand its operation in Waukesha County,” said Waukesha County Executive Paul Farrow. “Our unwavering commitment to growing our economy and supporting the needs of businesses like Immucor, advances our long-term goal to become the economic epicenter of Wisconsin. We wish Immucor continued success.”
