Town of Ramapo Supervisor Michael Specht attended the ribbon cutting at the Strides Pharma Science plant in Chestnut Ridge, joining Lt. Governor Brian Benjamin and other state and local officials in welcoming Strides to Rockland County and the Town of Ramapo. Strides has moved all of its manufacturing and marketing operations from out of state and overseas to the Ramapo site, which is located at the former Endo Pharmaceutical Plant. Strides will retain all of Endo’s 215 employees and will add an additional 40 jobs as it invests $42 million in expanding its facilities and operations in our town. Thank you to Governor Kathy Hochul, Lt. Governor Benjamin, and Strides Pharma for proving that New York, Rockland and Ramapo are open for business.
