ABOUT US

Who We Are

We exist to create formulas for life

Tecnifar is a company that views the pharmaceutical market differently: where some see health, Tecnifar sees life.

More than responding to the challenges of the industry, the expectations of agents operating in the sector and the needs of the population, Tecnifar seeks to play an active role in improving the quality of life of the Portuguese.

Together for Life


"We have always had a team of employees who, with us, 
implemented the necessary changes to make Tecnifar a more agile, 
mature and efficient company today."

ANTÓNIO CHAVES COSTA
President of the Board of Directors of Tecnifar

A Sustained Journey

Tecnifar's path has been as dynamic as it is sustained, because its growth strategy has always been well based, both on criteria of rigor and innovation - the same ones that still guide its stance and activity today.

  • A company with 100% national capital

    It has been a family company since its foundation, with 100% national capital.

    Its growth has been maintained throughout three generations of entrepreneurial employees and shareholders, determined to affirm the brand in multiple areas of pharmaceutical specialties.

    At the same time, the name Tecnifar has safely entered an ever-widening circle of international research and development centers, thus contributing to consolidating its image of rigor and reliability in the scientific world as well.

  • A reference in the area of ​​Health

    Tecnifar is a reference for Portuguese companies in the healthcare sector, with growing international recognition.

    The first steps were taken together with Instituto Luso-Fármaco and Medicamenta, companies with which it shared synergies between 1969 – the year of its foundation – and 1986.

    From this year onwards, Tecnifar gained total autonomy and embarked on the adventure of growing alone, with independence, security and determination.
