Germany now Europe’s leading pharma industry – CPhI Worldwide ranking
The findings were published in a report which provides vital insights into the world’s leading pharma economies across all attributes, and indicates which markets have the greatest business prospects and growth potential
According to a research conducted by CPhI Worldwide, Germany now ranks as Europe’s preeminent pharma industry. The data was drawn from the CPhI Annual Report and includes opinions from over 350 international pharma companies.
The ‘CPhI Pharma Index’ is an annually produced perception ranking of the world’s top performing countries. It provides vital insights into the world’s leading pharma economies across all attributes, and indicates which markets have the greatest business prospects and growth potential.
The results of the report see Germany consolidate its status as an elite pharmaceutical market, finishing ahead of its European counterparts in API Manufacturing , competitiveness, innovation finished product manufacturing, and growth potential.
According to a press release issued by CphI Wordwide, one of the most notable trends noticed is the sudden rise in anticipated growth potential for Germany in 2019/2020, increasing by 11 per cent from 2018. The research’s authors attribute the shifting European outlook over the last couple of years to wider macro changes, as well as the continued strength of European pharma. “Germany is perceived to be reaping a ‘Brexit boost’ in its medium-term growth potential – with an equal drop in the UK scores directly correlating to the increases seen in Germany’s,” the release stated.
“It is no surprise that Germany has again emerged as a global pharmaceutical leader. However, the country has further increased its score, suggesting it has consolidated its position as Europe’s top pharma industry. There are a number of leading German manufacturers and service providers in the pharmaceutical industry in attendance at CPhI Worldwide this year, including BASF, B. Braun, Evonik, Vetter Pharma, AG, Wacker, Corden Pharma and Merck.
