About Anglo French Drugs & Industries
Anglo French Drugs and Industries Limited is a Mumbai-based pharmaceutical company incorporated in 1963, one of India's older pharma manufacturers with over 60 years of operating history. The company is engaged in the manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical formulations, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and related healthcare products. Anglo French Drugs has a diverse pharmaceutical product portfolio spanning multiple therapeutic segments including antibiotics, analgesics, anti-infectives, and other formulations. The company's manufacturing operations serve both domestic Indian markets and export markets, leveraging India's position as the world's pharmacy, supplying over 60% of global vaccine requirements and 20% of global generic medicines. The Indian pharmaceutical industry is a Rs 4.16 lakh crore market growing at approximately 11% annually, driven by rising healthcare spending, increasing chronic disease burden, government health insurance expansion, and growing pharmaceutical exports. Companies like Anglo French Drugs benefit from India's cost-competitive manufacturing base, skilled scientific workforce, and established regulatory compliance capabilities. The company's Mumbai headquarters provides access to India's largest pharma hub — Maharashtra houses some of India's most significant pharmaceutical manufacturing clusters.
