Denham Springs: Bercen Inc new HQ's
CRANSTON, RI – Bercen Inc., a specialty chemicals company, will be moving its headquarters and research lab from Rhode Island to east-suburban Denham Springs along with dozens of jobs, La. Gov. Bobby Jindal has announced.
Jindal said that Bercen plans to invest about $5 million in expanding its existing manufacturing operation in Louisiana and to add another 20 jobs with average salaries of $90,000. It was not immediately clear how many jobs would be moved from Cranston. An announcement on Bercen’s Web site said that “more than 100 jobs are on the way to Livingston Parish [where Denham Springs is located], including some high-paying management jobs,” but it was not clear whether that tally included yet-to-be-created positions.
