In times of crisis, good news is not so frequent.
Laboratoires Pierre Fabre have just announced an investment of 71 million euros in their Soual plant, which manufactures creams, shampoos, lotions and gels sold under the Avène, Ducray, A-Derma, Galenic, Klorane and René Furterer brands. The objective is to increase its production capacity by 60 million units to support the development of international activities.
The press release published by the group states that this commitment confirms its willingness to invest in France and more specifically in its region of origin, which accounts for nearly half of its workforce. Pierre Fabre employs nearly 10,000 people worldwide.
