Geropharm, one of Russia’s largest drugmakers, has signed an agreement with VTB, Russia’s leading state-owned bank, on the provision of a loan for the building of a new pharmaceutical plant in Russia, which is expected to be one of the largest in the country.

The new plant will be built in the Pushkin district of St Petersburg, while the overall volume of investments in the project is expected to reach 4 billion roubles ($58.8 million).

The new plant should be officially commissioned on December 28, 2017. In addition to drug production itself, the new facility will focus on the manufacture of pharmaceutical substances which, to date, have been fully imported into Russia.
