PHARMACY MARKET
Bushu Pharmaceuticals Ltd. | April 28, 2021
Bushu Pharmaceuticals Ltd. has entered into a business partnership arrangement with Suzuken Co., Ltd. to provide specialty pharmaceutical producers looking to enter the Japanese market with extensive support for new product releases.
In recent years, the market has seen an increase in the number of innovative specialty pharmaceuticals, such as biopharmaceuticals, regenerative medicines, and orphan drugs for rare diseases, that require strict temperature, inventory, and security control. In line with this trend, the number of pharmaceutical companies planning to bring these types of drugs to Japan has grown. These pharmaceutical manufacturers, on the other hand, often lack the necessary infrastructure, such as production facilities, delivery centers, and networks, to reach the Japanese market with minimal resources, and must therefore outsource these functions to trusted partners.
Suzuken, Bushu Pharma's partner, has played an industry-leading role in Japan's pharmaceutical distribution market. Suzuken, one of the leading organizations in the industry, has a distribution network in Japan capable of supporting the international shipping of specialty pharmaceuticals. Bushu Pharma, on the other hand, has been in the contract manufacturing industry in Japan for over 20 years, holds GMP certifications from all over the world, and has a track record of exporting to over 43 countries. Bushu Pharma will establish a platform that provides one-stop holistic assistance for pharmaceutical producers seeking to penetrate the Japanese market by aligning functions and capabilities with Suzuken.
