About Us
Our History
Farma de Colombia is a pharmaceutical company whose capital is 100% Swiss. It has been operating in Colombia since 1960. It has operations in other countries such as Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela, the latter being where it all began and then spread to the other countries.
The Farma group began operations in 1938, when Alfred Kuster, after having completed an internship in the European pharmaceutical industry, accepted the offer of a Swiss export company. Over the years, Farma S.A. created its first subsidiary in Latin America, which was called “Farco Ltda”, which later became Farma de Colombia.
The origin of Farma de Colombia dates back to February 18, 1960, when Farco Ltda. was founded. On March 1st, 2000, the merger by absorption of the companies Farma de Colombia S.A, Grupo Farma de Colombia S.A, Konsuma de Colombia and Novafarma laboratories was approved, with which the acquiring company was called GRUPO FARMA DE COLOMBIA S.A. In 2010, after 50 years of presence in the pharmaceutical market, the company renewed its image and took on the name of Farma de Colombia S.A.S and got established as an organization with Swiss capital, developing projects to venture into the European market.
During these more than 60 years of experience, Farma de Colombia has been recognized for offering Colombian people innovative products of high quality and with wide acceptance in the market, developed in its own way or by license of multinational companies of wide recognition.
