We’ve been keen to expand our presence in the US market and the site’s capabilities complement our current service offering,” commented Kevin Cook, CEO of Sterling Pharma Solutions, in a press release. “The North American market now makes up 70% of our customer portfolio, which was one of the major reasons behind the decision to look for a facility in the US. This has been primarily driven by the market’s emerging pharma sector and customer demand for our specialist capabilities in complex and challenging chemistry.”
