Every successful business story starts small, and depends on the ability to turn that modest beginning into lasting, meaningful growth. For Berlin-Chemie Menarini Romania, the story began in 1996 with a single representative office and a clear ambition: to build a strong, lasting partnership with the country, support the development of its pharmaceutical sector, and bring real value to physicians and patients alike.
Nearly three decades on, that early presence has become a fully fledged nationwide operation, with 205 employees and a steadily growing role within the Menarini Group. In a fast-moving country that bridges Central and Eastern Europe, the Romanian affiliate has expanded with remarkable consistency, evolving alongside the market and deepening its contribution to local healthcare.
The numbers speak clearly to this progress. In 2025, Berlin-Chemie Menarini Romania exceeded €115 million in gross revenue, securing its place among the country’s ten leading pharmaceutical companies. The achievement reflects far more than commercial success: it is a measure of the trust earned, year after year, from the medical community and the Romanian health system.
The affiliate’s portfolio today comprises 28 brands, encompassing prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, and medical devices. This breadth enables it to serve a wide spectrum of therapeutic areas: cardiology, neurology, and psychiatry, alongside respiratory medicine, diabetes, gastroenterology, dermatology, and anti-infectives. Behind every one of them lies a single guiding principle: to provide effective, accessible solutions tailored to the diverse needs of patients.
Cardiology stands out among these areas as a long-standing pillar of Menarini’s work. In Romania, that commitment extends beyond products to education, through training programmes for specialists designed to encourage continuous learning, scientific dialogue, and the exchange of practical experience. It is an approach that strengthens partnerships with healthcare professionals and, ultimately, raises the standard of patient care.
Looking back over these years, the journey of Berlin-Chemie Menarini Romania reveals a company that has grown through expertise and a strong sense of responsibility, guided by a vision clear enough to face the present with confidence. It is a journey that unites international scope with deep local roots, keeping patients at its core and carrying the Menarini spirit into the very heart of Romanian healthcare.
