Gedeon Richter Romania
The history of the Tirgu Mures-based Gedeon Richter Romania goes back to 1985, when the foundation stone of the pharmaceutical plant Armedica was laid. Manufacturing began four years later. It was in 1998 that Richter purchased a 50.98% majority stake in Armedica from the Romanian state.
Thanks to the continuous facility developments (setting up a regional development laboratory and a logistics centre, development of the tabletting, ointment and finished dosage plants, and modernisation of the service units), the modern preparations produced by the Romanian subsidiary comply with regulations and the company has undergone several successful Romanian and international GMP inspections.
