Commercial Operations

Acino established its presence in Ukraine with the acquisition of the Pharma Start manufacturing facility in October 2015, and significantly expanded its business in 2018 with the commercialisation of nine Merck products for the treatment of cardiovascular and endocrine diseases in the CIS and neighbouring countries. Since then, the company has achieved double-digit year-on-year growth and is one of the fastest growing pharmaceutical companies in Ukraine.

In 2024, Aсino in Ukraine received the Good Distribution Practice (GDP) certificate for the first time, confirming the company’s compliance with European standards for the distribution of medicines. This certificate is a proof that the quality management system, logistics, storage, sales processes, as well as qualified and dedicated personnel guarantee a high level of quality assurance of products at all stages of distribution leading to the final consumer.
