IBSA Institut Biochimique SA is a privately owned, pharmaceutical company founded in 1945 by a group of Swiss biologists. Based in Lugano, Switzerland, IBSA started its activities at a national level but rapidly became a well consolidated company worldwide. IBSA markets its products in 4 continents which means more than 70 countries, including the US. IBSA’s history can be divided into 2 main periods from its beginning 1945 to 1985 when the current management took over and completely re-defined the company strategy leading to the first international development and to its present global reputation.
As a result of this massive commercial revolution, IBSA currently has a head count of about 1800 employees and its products cover 7 main therapeutic areas in 4 continents and more than 70 countries. Each year the company manufactures about 12 millions vials of hormones, more than 200 millions soft gel capsules and about 60 millions packages of finished products. These are the numbers of a well-deserved success.
The company’s first foreign subsidiary was founded in 1995 in Budapest, Hungary. The subsidiary has 21 years of unbroken success, with a dedicated and hardworking staff whose efforts truly demonstrate the impeccable quality and competitive prices that the IBSA brand embodies.
