DBL Pharmaceuticals Ltd.
About Company
After the birth of Bangladesh, a few small scale manufacturers managed to survive and grow the local drug market, but with high dependency on imports & MNCs. A turning point for the local industry appeared when renowned experts of the country formulated and adopted the first National Drug Policy. Within the next 30 years, the country witnessed a phenomenal growth of the pharmaceutical industry. Today our medicines are exported to 144 countries. Nearly 97 percent of the market demand is now met by local products & revenue earned from the pharmaceutical sector accounts for 3% of GDP.
Though we have reached near self-sufficiency in pharmaceuticals in terms of quantities, as a country our next level goal is to reach the quality standards equivalent to that of the strictly regulated first world countries. At the same time, as Bangladesh becomes a middle income country, we also need to prepare as an industry to graduate into an advanced R&D based one.
