I have an excellent inside source, the management claims that there are no good engineers in the lakes region and that moving closer to Boston will solve this. Lots of problems with this statement, the founders of the company were from here, the new owners aren't willing to pay what it takes to get good people, added to the fact they think they can get the churn from other companies near Boston then have instant success. Currently they hire engineer students right out of college with no experience thinking they can reinvent the wheel, whereas the seasoned engineers have either moved on to higher paying companies or have been put to pasture. I'm sure there are people on this forum that can see where this leads, this is reality at EFI Meredith.

Well, there are artist conceptions as what the new building will look like, except it hasn't been built yet. There are a lot of birds in the bush, too bad, because this company used to be a world leader. It was the first to build inkjet wide format (think billboard) printers, all built here in Meredith. Currently the plans are to move manufacturing off shore to China and Spain to maximize profit, Manchester will be primarily a demo center and a dream of engineers supporting overseas manufacturing.
