We are continuously investing in our manufacturing infrastructure, and strengthening our capabilities to address the evolving requirements of our partners. Our focus remains on operational excellence, consistent quality and building long-term relationships based on trust. Mr. Sandeep Jain, Managing Director, added, “Our ambition is to establish Akums as a globally recognised CDMO player, with capabilities that extend across markets, dosage forms and therapeutic segments. We are working towards this vision by strengthening our product pipeline for global markets and expanding our manufacturing capabilities. With a robust pipeline of over 30+ products for European markets, we see significant opportunities to broaden our offerings and deepen our engagement with global partners. Our focus is on building a diversified and sustainable business that combines manufacturing scale, formulation expertise and global quality standards to support our long-term growth aspirations.” During the quarter, Akums took another step towards expanding its manufacturing presence beyond pharmaceuticals. Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Pure & Cure Healthcare Private Limited, the Company acquired Oriflame India's manufacturing business for ₹56 crore. The transaction includes two manufacturing facilities located in Roorkee, Uttarakhand, and Noida, Uttar Pradesh, along with a leased warehouse in Noida. The development marks Akums' entry into colour cosmetics manufacturing and expands its capabilities across skincare and wellness products. It also provides an opportunity to leverage its existing manufacturing expertise to address the growing requirements of the beauty and personal care industry. Our constant endeavours reflect on Akums' continued focus on strengthening its core CDMO operations while exploring opportunities in new manufacturing segments and expanding its product portfolio. With a growing product pipeline, expanding manufacturing capabilities and sustained efforts to tap global markets, the Company remains focused on building a broader and more diversified business platform.
