RAVENSBURG, Germany, May 18, 2022 / B3C newswire / -- For the third year in a row, Vetter, a globally leading contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), has won the Best Managed Companies Award. With this three-win feat, the pharmaceutical service provider has once again demonstrated why it is considered one of the industry leaders.

Representatives of Vetter’s owner family and senior management were proud to receive the award during the official ceremony on May 12, in Düsseldorf, Germany.

“Winning this award three years in a row is an outstanding achievement for our company and current base of 5,700 employees,” said Senator h.c. Udo J. Vetter, Chairman of the Advisory Board and member of the owner family. “The award signifies that we are a stable and reliable company, basing our performance on both long-term strategic execution as well as on sustainable orientation.”

In close partnerships with its global customer base, Vetter’s intent as a solution provider is to provide patients around the world with flawless, high-quality medications to treat a wide range of severe diseases. By applying innovative, multidimensional programs, the company strives to operate in a sustainable manner, giving equal weight to environmental aspects as well as social and economic considerations. Further company highlights that contributed to sealing the winning of this year’s award were the timely receipt of the manufacturing authorization for its clinical production facility in Rankweil, Austria, combined with the start of the company’s new strategic program Vetter NExT 2029.

"As a winner of the Best Managed Companies Award, Vetter has once again successfully demonstrated its outstanding corporate management," emphasizes Markus Seiz, Best Managed Company Program Leader and Director at Deloitte Private. "Vetter is thus not only a benchmark for German SMEs, but at the same time stands for a strong as well as thoughtful economy in turbulent times."

Despite the current challenges we face concerning the significant increase in prices and delivery times, we are making every possible effort to continue on our successful path. We are doing so in close partnership with our customers, partners, and suppliers.”
