Description:
Founded by Samih Darwazah over 40 years ago in Jordan, Hikma's purpose is to provide affordable, quality medicines to people in need. Based on very solid foundations, we continue to innovate daily and find practical solutions to transform the lives of the millions of people we serve.

At the end of the 1980s, we extended our footprint beyond the Middle East and acquired land in Portugal to build a sterile factory for injectable pharmaceutical products. This was an important turning point for the company, and our first step into a new region. Today, in Portugal, we have more than 1000 employees and 3 factories for the production of injectable medicines.
