Carwyn Jones, first minister of Wales, was a guest of Triumph Group in Tredyffrin Township last week, Philly.com reports.

The first minister was celebrating Triumph’s $8 million investment in the Deeside Enterprise Zone in northern Wales. The investment will enable the manufacture of landing-gear hydraulics for Europe’s Airbus consortium, create 60 jobs, and double the plant’s capacity.

Triumph is fueling an industrial revival for Wales. Joseph DiStefano reports there are 17 Pennsylvania companies with industrial operations in Wales. Read the full story here.
