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.
