Description

Supermarket chain Morrisons has announced plans to create 100 new jobs at the company's in-house fish processing plants in Grimsby. Fish processing for the retailer is housed at two sites in the town which currently employ around 500 staff. Morrisons is able to expand given growing customer demand for its products. As yet there is no further information about when the jobs will be filled.
