Pierre Fabre is the 2nd largest private French pharmaceutical group. Their positioning is what they refer to as the “from health to beauty” continuum of activities, being an extremely diverse healthcare company, with both a pharmaceuticals and a dermo-cosmetics division. In 2015 total company revenues reached 2.2 billion euros (2.49 billion USD) corresponding to a growth rate of five percent compared to the previous year, with the dermo‐cosmetics division representing 58 percent of sales. Pierre Fabre is becoming increasingly international, today 64 percent of revenues are generated beyond France. Their dermo-cosmetics business has been built upon pharmaceutical roots, providing Pierre Fabre with a clear competitive edge when compared to other pure cosmetic companies. When it comes to their pharmaceuticals business, Europe accounts for 75 percent of their turnover.
