Lek Pharmaceutical and Chemical Company d.d.

Lek Pharmaceutical and Chemical Company d.d. is a pharmaceutical company with a tradition of over 50 years. On global scale Lek ranks among the most dynamic, highly ethical and reliable mid-sized pharmaceutical companies. We are structured as Lek Business Group, with companies and representative offices in 19 countries.

Our principal business is the development, production and marketing of pharmaceutical finished dosage forms and active substances. The basic pharmaceutical portfolio is completed by animal health products, cosmetics, and medical devices.

We use most of the active substances from our product portfolio for the production of our own finished dosage forms. This enables us to better understand and adapt to the problems and requirenments of our custemers.

We market our products in more than 80 countries world-wide, including the United States of America, Australia, Canada and Japan.

Legislative conformity of Lek products and processes is based on the ISO 9001 quality standard which is being supplemented by the most up-to-date laws, regulations and guidelines of the most demanding legislative institutions: FDA (Food and Drug Administration), EMEA (European Medicines Evaluation Agency) and TGA (Therapeutic Goods Agency).

We are aware that the quality of products and processes can be provided only by a quality organization which, in turn, is conditioned by quality management, as well as by the efficiency of all employees and their commitment to realizing the goals and strategy of the company. Therefore, our efforts at concern for quality are oriented towards achieving a standard of excellence in the entire company.

Lek, being an organization striving to achieve the highest standards in its operations, supports the same drive in other areas as well. For many years we have been a part-ner of the Slovene Olympic Committee, promoting the Olympic idea and helping the Slovene Olympians.
