Zurich, Switzerland, November 9, 2023 – DKSH’s Business Unit Performance Materials, a leading distributor of specialty chemicals and ingredients, will provide business development, marketing, sales, logistics, distribution services, product registration, and technical support for Pharmgate’s range of swine vaccines across four key markets in South-East Asia, namely Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand.

Pharmgate’s FDA- and USDA-approved manufacturing sites provide swine farmers with a variety of options for active ingredients, concentrations, administration routes, and monovalent/bivalent vaccines. Pharmgate’s comprehensive portfolio of intramuscular injections includes CircoGard, Circo/MycoGard, PRRSGard, MycoGard, and MycoGard-1.

By distributing these products in the markets, DKSH and Pharmgate can improve the welfare of farm animals together.
