Heritage & Milestones

    The Zuellig Pharma Story
    <p>The beginnings of the Zuellig Pharma story date back to 1901 when Frederick E. Zuellig sailed to Manila in search of a career in international business. </p> <p>In 1912, Zuellig joined Lutz y C&iacute;a, a firm owned by a Swiss family who started to trade in the Philippine Islands in the 1850s. Zuellig became a partner in this firm, subsequently acquired full ownership and incorporated it in 1922. </p> <p>In its early years, F. E. Zuellig, Inc. operated as a general merchant, agent, distributor, manufacturer, exporter and importer in diverse fields, such as textiles, insurance, shipping and transport, consumer goods, healthcare products, household appliances, commodities, industrial chemicals and machinery.</p>
    <p>In 1938, Zuellig organised a Drug Department to specialise in the importation, marketing and distribution of healthcare products. After the devastation of World War II, the founder&rsquo;s two sons rebuilt the business and expanded their enterprises beyond traditional trading activities into a dynamic transnational group of companies.</p> <p>Over the years, Zuellig Pharma developed into an autonomous operation and became one of the flagship businesses of the Zuellig Group.</p>
