Upsher-Smith honored with HDA’s DIANA Award
Upsher-Smith has received a Distribution Industry Award for Notable Achievement in Healthcare (DIANA Award) for Best Overall Manufacturer, Branded Pharmaceuticals, Sales Less Than $300M by the Healthcare Distribution Alliance.
Awards were presented to outstanding pharmaceutical and consumer product manufacturers during HDA's 2023 Business and Leadership Conference in Colorado Springs on June 12.
"While this is not the first time we have been honored with a prestigious DIANA Award, this year's win holds special significance against a backdrop of global supply and regulatory compliance challenges leading to drug shortages across the industry," said Rich Fisher, president and chief operating officer of Upsher-Smith. "This award is validation that a U.S.-based drug manufacturer with a tenured team of account executives can make a positive impact on drug distribution, the pharmacies they supply, and the patients that rely on these channels for their medication."
