Our Journey
What started as a company facilitating entry of foreign pharma enterprises in India almost five decades ago, redefined its existence as a manufacturing entity in pharmaceuticals in 1980 and today stands as one of the largest and leading pharmaceutical manufacturing companies. Anantco was the first to initiate manufacturing of Steroids and Hormones and production of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients at its manufacturing unit in Gujarat.
The decade of the 1990s saw the emergence of Anantco as a platform in the pharmaceutical space serving Indian pharma companies with an expanded portfolio including manufacturing, imports, exports, audits, licensing, product registrations, and legal procedures. We help companies identify the right suppliers from the large pool of producers and support them in manufacturing, trading, shipping, quality compliances, and regulatory procedures. We have trained teams for R & D, analysis, documentation and production. This gives us the edge over a standalone consulting or trading firm.
