As the knowledge in the world of high-tech products progresses, Iran’s pharmaceutical IRANIAN PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES DIRECTORY
industries are actively working on conventional medicines, biotech, and vaccines in more
than 170 pharmaceutical factories, which are all operating within Iran.
Besides the active pharmaceutical factories, a large number of pharmaceutical factories are
establishing rapidly in industrial estates which significantly increases the share of private-
sector factories in shaping the pharmaceutical industry.
Despite imposed sanctions on Iran during the past four decades, having benefited the
able and skillful hands and brains of its scientists, pharmaceutical industry has succeeded
to manage and stabilize the pharmaceutical market and meet the needs of patients.

Although we proved that the imposed sanctions did not impact the pharmaceutical industry,
lack of effective communication between world banking system and Iranian counterparts
made everything difficult to supply the medicine.

In addition to the problems of medicine supply management in emergency situation of the
country, the corona pandemic increased the responsibility of the pharmaceutical industry.
Iranian pharmaceutical companies succeed to pass this hard test tactfully and by relying
upon the ability of its local experts, they have been able to provide effective medicines for
this infectious disease immediately after the last methods of treatment in global protocols.

We are proud to say the Iranian pharmaceutical team by all industry actors such as pharmacists,
chemists, engineers, etc. runs a pioneer industry.

Iran Pharma’s target is to expand export markets for Iranian products and raise the trade
balance with other countries within the next 5 years.
This goal will be feasible in cooperation with the Food and Drug Administration of Iran and
other organizations.
