02 About us
Building a strong, integrated pharmaceutical group with a global outlook.
We were established in 2006 with the aim of building a strong and integrated pharmaceutical group with a global outlook. Through organic growth, strategic acquisitions, and long-term investment, we bring together trusted brands, manufacturing capabilities, and market expertise across global markets.
Through EastPharma Sàrl, we acquired control of the Turkish generic pharmaceutical company DEVA in 2006, and Saba in 2007. Since then we have applied experienced management expertise to ensure these subsidiaries are in a strong position to increase their market share and profitability.
We had been a listed company on the London Stock Exchange since 2008, until delisting on 1 August 2019 in line with local legal requirements.
Our first major undertaking was to facilitate the implementation of DEVA's new growth strategy. In 2006 we became DEVA's majority shareholder and installed a new management team. Headquartered in Istanbul, DEVA manufactures and sells pharmaceutical generics, formulations and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and is one of the leading pharmaceutical companies in Türkiye.
At EastPharma, we bring together a strong group of pharmaceutical companies, including DEVA, Devatis, and Saba, under a shared vision. Since our establishment, we have focused on building a sustainable and integrated structure across the international markets in which we operate.
