Company Report

Wuxi Biologics Is a Global CRDMO With Near-Term Geopolitical Risks

WuXi Biologics differentiates itself from other well-established global contract development and manufacturing organizations, with its "follow-and-win the molecule" and "global dual-sourcing" strategies. Simply put, it provides end-to-end services for biological drugs from drug discovery all the way to clinical and commercial manufacturing. As such, WuXi has one of the largest bioreactor capacities for biological drug products. As a result, WuXi has been growing at a compound annual growth rate of 53.3% for the past eight years, much faster than that of global pharmaceutical sales or global CDMOs.
