Biophore is a research driven global pharmaceutical company focused on development, manufacturing and marketing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) having its operations based in Hyderabad, India and also has a registered office in New Jersey, USA. Biophore has two dedicated R&D facilities in Hyderabad and Vishakapatnam. The research facilities are fully equipped with wide range of R&D and process equipment from USA with reaction capabilities from milligram to kilogram. Ever since its establishment in 2007, Biophore recognized that there were two ways of growing the API business: manufacture a large API product basket, or pick a handful of promising APIs in select therapeutic categories and grow them over the long-term. Biophore consciously chose the latter option and focused on not only building competencies and adding scale in those segments but more importantly, building efficiencies that would make it an undisputed leader in these products of choice. The product range is constantly expanded through its own R&D, process development, technology transfers, joint ventures and collaborations. Biophore’s core strength lies in development of non – infringing routes for comprehensive range of bulk actives and intermediates, development of niche APIs, oncology APIs, APIs for MRI contrast agents and APIs for NCE - 1 filing.

Our other facility Azico – Biophore is also a n FDA approved facility that strictly complies with cGMP procedures and maintains well documented SOPs, with a modern quality control laboratory thereby ensuring the production of highest quality APIs.
