Roche begins construction on Marana facility

Roche, the international healthcare company, has officially begin construction on a new facility in southern Marana.

On the first day of June, Roche broke ground on the future site of its new, 60,000 square foot facility on Tangerine Road. Upon completion, Roche will have effectively doubled its operating space in Marana, as the new faciliity is being built adjacent to an existing structure- also consisting of 60,000 square feet of space. The company anticipates completing its construction next spring.

Jill German, the head of Roche Tissue Diagnostics (which operates the facility), was noticeably excited in an interview on the subject. “This further solidifies Roche’s commitment to this area,” she told Inside Tucson Business. “Last year, cancer patients along with many other types of diseases suffered because getting to a hospital and having testing was very difficult during COVID, and yet we still touched the lives of 27 million patients around the world. And that’s something this site helps us continue to do.”

The expansion into a second 60,000 square foot facility promises to boost the Marana economy by bringing jobs to the town. The company intends to transfer a number of their employees from Oro Valley to Marana when the new facility is finished.
