ANAMBRA PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING PARK
WHERE MEDICINE ARE MADE AND NOT IMPORTED
This is the vision of Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo CFR to create medium and high tech industrial Parks in Anambra State.
The Pharma park is a compact modern-day pharmaceutical industrial estate that will house pharmaceutical companies of varying capacities, service providers, and companies providing support services to share workstations and infrastructure.
Our Plan is to position Anambra as the next axis for Nigerian industrialization hub

The United States leads in generating the highest revenue in the global market, with US$624.10bn expected in 2023.
In the African pharmaceutical market, the Serviceable Addressable Market size is estimated to be US$14.36bn in 2023, with an annual growth rate of 3.35% (CAGR 2023-2027), reaching a market volume of US$16.38bn by 2027.
Notably, approximately 70% of pharmaceutical products in Nigeria are imported, amounting to about US$1.36bn. The top segments for over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceutical products include Cold & Cough Remedies, Hand Sanitizers, Vitamins & Minerals, Analgesics, Digestives & Intestinal Remedies, and Skin Treatment.
To combat counterfeiting and parallel imports, national drug enforcement agencies are increasingly requiring country-specific labeling. In Nigeria, all pharmaceutical products must include a local address on their packaging. The Nigerian government's efforts to crack down on counterfeit drugs and reduce medical tourism are significant driving factors for the country's pharmaceutical market.
