In 2023 Pharmia has been developing and manufacturing high quality products for already 30 years. In November 1992 Tuulikki Harmia-Pulkkinen (Doctor of Pharmacy) got an idea to start a company that offers contract manufacturing services within the pharmaceutical and food supplement sectors. In May 1993 Pharmia’s operations started with two employees and one tablet and blister machine.
Throughout the years the market and circumstances have changed rapidly. To keep up with the change, Pharmia has developed actively in all aspects of its operations. The initial self-monitoring of quality has progressed through various stages to FSSC 22000 food safety management system and ISO13485 quality system. In 2022, Pharmia was among the first in Europe to receive an MDR certificate for medical devices. In 30 years Pharmia has grown to be Finland’s leading developer and manufacturer of food supplements and medical devices. Today Pharmia employs over 100 professionals, and manufactures more than eight million consumer packages annually.
In 1993 Pharmia had two rooms at the factory in Tuusula but over the years, as our operations have expanded, we have taken over the entire 5,100 square meter building. In November 2022 Pharmia further strengthened its capacity by buying Elokuu Luonnontuote Oy’s food supplement business. Pharmia has also invested in sustainability in recent years, and the first sustainability report will be published this year.
In addition to our own personnel, a huge thank you naturally goes to the clients and partners with whom we have grown and developed together. Capman’s investment in Pharmia in 2021 guarantees that Pharmia will also develop strongly in the future, increase its turnover, and offer innovative and high-quality products to its customers sustainably.
