of them related to pharmaceutical industry.

 

 

First at all, there is the pharmaceutical company Instituto Sanitas S.P.S.A., with an industrial plant with over 20,000 m2, established in 1940. This company merged withanother big laboratory called Laboratorios Magma, established on 25.06.1961.

 

By Notarial Instrument, dated 22.02.1978, before Notary Dr. Virgilio Alzamora Valdez, subject took over by merger the company INSTITUTO QUIMICO S.A.

 

On 01.04.1997, it was approved the merger between subject (merging company) and the firm LABORATORIOS SANITAS S.A. (merged company). At the same time, it was changed the corporate name into the present CORPORACION INFARMASA S.A.

 

Later, on 01.06.1998, CORPORACION INFARMASA S.A. took over by merger the companies: CROMATOGRAFICA MA-SA SA and SEFIAL SA, which were dissolved without liquidation.

 

On 27.12.2007, it was agreed that subject took over by merger CORPORACION IFARPE S.A.C. (Taxpayer ID No. (RUC) 20516740494), which was dissolved without liquidation. It was agreed that the above-mentioned would be entered into force from 01.01.2008.

 

A press release on Internet, dated 11.09.2007, informed how the "Grupo Garrido" together with other groups of shareholders sold the Colombian company Altra Investments the 97% of capital stock of Corporación Infarmasa S.A., a top company in the Peruvian pharmaceutical sector with over 50 years of experience.

 

Corporación Infarmasa S.A.'s annual sales amounts to US$ 50 millions in the Peruvian market, as well as in Ecuador, Argentina, Colombia and United States.

 

The operations was carried out by a team of Forsyth & Arbe Abogados led by its partner Albert Forsyth and composed of the partner Guilhermo Auler and associated Valery Vicente and Sandro Cogorno.

 

Jose Antonio Payet and Daniel Abramovich, from the law firm Payet, Rey, Cauvi Abogados, participated as legal advisers of the purchasers.

 

It is known that now subject has as controlling company the firm CORPORACION IFARPE S.A.C. (Taxpayer ID No. (RUC) 20516740494), established in the country on 13.08.2007. It was not ruled out that this would be a subsidiary company of Altra Investments.

 

The 4.25% of shares is controlled together by a total of 30 minority shareholders.

 

 

HISTORY

 

Corporación Infarmasa is a consortium established from strategic joint by two big pharmaceutical companies: Laboratorios Magma and Instituto Sanitas S.P.S.A.

 

At the beginnings of 1940's, Instituto Sanitas S.P.S.A. was founded. With its industrial plant with over 20,000 m2, it would become one of the most equipped pharmaceutical companies in Latin America.

 

In 1946, Dr. Marco Antonio Garrido Malo founded Laboratorios Magma and Instituto Químico Biológico S.A. (Biosa). At its beginnings, the first of them was engaged in manufacture of galenical products, and Biosa was engaged in manufacture of biological products. After both companies were merged, Laboratorios Magma installed a plant for manufacturing penicillin products, which is considered one of the top industries in the market of those antibiotics until now. Years later, in 1953, one of the most prestigious European laboratories, Farmitalia Carlo Erba, started its operations in Peru, which in 1975 installed a plant for manufacturing pharmaceutical products, establishing the Instituto Farmaceutico Peruano (IFARPE) (Peruvian Pharmaceutical Institute). As it was purchased in 1991, two years later, it would become together with Magma and Sanitas into Infarmasa Group.

 


Thus, in 1997, Corporación Infarmasa was born based on one of the biggest pharmaceutical infrastructure nationwide, which enabled it to have two impressive production plant equipped with the most modern in pharmaceutical industry: one located in the district of Miraflores is engaged in manufacture of Penicillin products and the other located in the district of Ate is engaged in manufacture of Non-Penicillin products, preventing any cross-contamination risk and in compliance with internacional standards on Good Manufacturing Practices.

 

After Corporación Infarmasa was established, Línea Comercial G was established, a division offering to market generic medicines produced under the highest quality standards and at prices that users can afford.
