Servier Canada Inc is the Canadian affiliate of The Servier Research Group, a leading French research based organisation, specializing in ethical pharmaceuticals.
In the short span of fifty five years, the Servier Research Group has developed in stature from a family-owned, provincial pharmacy employing nine people to a multi-national operation with over 20,000 employees, including 3,000 in R&D, yet the Company is still privately-owned and is still passionately and permanently committed to remaining independent.
In Canada, Servier’s activities commenced in February 1978 in a modest location in Pointe-Claire, Quebec with a total staff of three employees. Within a month of its opening, a Sales supervisor and seven sales representatives were recruited and working in the region of Quebec. From 1985-1991, Servier Canada continued to gradually expand its presence across Canada, with growth in both its size of sales force and the number of head office employees. By 1994, the Company had moved to new premises in Laval, Quebec, where its current facility resides.
Servier Canada is committed to the investment in research and development and was proud to join Canada’s Research Based Pharmaceutical Companies (Rx&D) in 1995.
