French drugmaker Sanofi is nearing a decision to invest between 1.3 billion euros and 1.5 billion euros ($1.4-$1.6 billion) in a significant upgrade at its production site in Frankfurt, Germany, where it manufactures the insulin brand Lantus, as reported by Handelsblatt on Monday.
According to the newspaper citing German government sources, Sanofi has reconsidered its initial plans and is now leaning towards enhancing the Frankfurt site in the Hoechst district. This decision comes after earlier considerations of potentially transferring Lantus production to France.
Sanofi has not yet commented on these developments following requests for clarification.
This potential investment aligns with recent efforts by Germany’s ruling coalition to attract healthcare investments.
Earlier instances include Daiichi Sankyo’s commitment in February to invest approximately 1 billion euros in advancing precision cancer drugs near Munich and Eli Lilly’s pledge in November last year to invest 2.3 billion euros in manufacturing obesity and diabetes drugs in Germany.
If confirmed, Sanofi’s investment would strengthen its operational capabilities in Frankfurt and contribute significantly to the local and national economy, bolstering Germany’s position in pharmaceutical production and innovation.
This move underscores Sanofi’s strategic commitment to expanding its production capacity for critical medications in Europe, potentially enhancing supply chain resilience and local employment opportunities.
