The entry into the Spanish market strengthens the group’s established and growing presence in Europe, the company said. This includes manufacturing plants in Portugal, Italy and Germany, which supply injectable products to North America, Europe, and Middle East and North Africa. 

Hikma is already supporting the Spanish hospitals by providing key oncological molecules that are currently in shortage, the company noted.

Bill Larkins, president of Hikma Injectables said, “The expansion into Spain is another important milestone in our global strategy to grow and strengthen our Injectables’ commercial presence in Europe and around the world. We have an agile supply chain, a growing product portfolio and regional manufacturing capabilities, which will enable us to supply Spanish hospitals and their patients with the high-quality injectable medicines they need.
