Hov­ione plots glob­al ex­pan­sion project, look­ing to boost ca­pac­i­ty on both sides of the At­lantic

Hov­ione is go­ing glob­al with its man­u­fac­tur­ing ex­pan­sion, from New Jer­sey all the way to Por­tu­gal.

The CD­MO an­nounced last week it would put $170 mil­lion in­to ex­pan­sions in Por­tu­gal, Ire­land and NJ, in an ef­fort to in­crease its glob­al ca­pac­i­ty by 25%. The move fol­lows an on­go­ing ef­fort since 2016 to ex­pand.

In a press re­lease, COO Jean-Luc Her­beaux said:

These in­vest­ments re­in­force our in­te­grat­ed spe­cial­ized of­fer glob­al­ly, pro­vid­ing our clients with a line of sight for their projects. Fo­cus is placed on fa­cil­i­tat­ing and speed­ing up the drug de­vel­op­ment cy­cle and launch, by pro­vid­ing API man­u­fac­tur­ing, Par­ti­cle En­gi­neer­ing and Tablet­ing ser­vices in each site. Our strat­e­gy con­tin­ues to be to grow or­gan­i­cal­ly via in­vest­ments in our ex­ist­ing sites, which are de­signed for pur­pose. This re­duces the com­plex­i­ty as­so­ci­at­ed with the growth jour­ney and al­lows us to fo­cus our man­age­ment at­ten­tion on what counts most, i.e. guar­an­tee­ing that our clients go to mar­ket with qual­i­ty, safe and ef­fec­tive med­i­cines for their pa­tients.
