Prompt and Reliable Pharmaceutical Contract Manufacturing Services -
Bushu Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (hereinafter “Bushu Pharma”) has
established the Bushu Pharma Kazo Packaging Center located within the Kazo
Pharmaceuticals Joint Distribution Center of Chuo Unyu Company (“Chuo Unyu”) to
carry out inspection, labeling, packaging and storage of pharmaceutical
products.
The establishment of the facility follows the agreement between
Bushu Pharma and Chuo Unyu in January 2021 to set up a storage area and a
refrigerated room at the distribution center. At the same time, Bushu Pharma
obtained a GMP-classified permit for storage of pharmaceutical products from
Saitama Prefecture.
Bushu Pharma plans to set up a packaging suite at the center to
carry out inspection, labeling and packaging operations in order to expand the
clinical and commercial drug product packaging business. The center is
scheduled to start operations in the summer of 2021.
Chuo Unyu is a wholly owned subsidiary of Suzuken Co., Ltd., a
major pharmaceutical wholesaler, and its main business is the transportation of
pharmaceuticals, medical machines/equipment, and other pharmaceutical-related
items. The company has a wealth of know-how, experience, and advanced
transportation technology as it relates to the distribution and storage of
pharmaceuticals. With the setup of the inspection/labeling/packaging area for
Bushu Pharma within the distribution center of Chuo Unyu and the integration of
Bushu Pharma’s technical capabilities with the know-how and experience of Chuo
Unyu, Bushu Pharma will be able to increasingly provide prompt and reliable
contract manufacturing services -- from production to delivery -- to
pharmaceutical manufacturers.
