A force for health across Latin America

At Apotex, we improve everyday access to affordable, innovative medicines and health products for patients and consumers across Latin America. Since 1974, we’ve been helping people around the world live healthier lives through innovation, quality, and care.

What began as a bold Canadian vision is now a regional commitment, supporting public health systems, healthcare professionals, and millions of patients across Latin America.

Today, Apotex is:

  • A trusted provider of branded generics and biosimilars across 8 countries in Latin America
  • A partner to governments and healthcare systems committed to access and equity
  • A long-term presence in the region, with manufacturing in Mexico and a solid distribution network across Central America

A commitment that drives everything we do

We’re committed to accessibility and equity in health. We focus on affordability, innovation, and local responsiveness to help overcome barriers to care across Latin America.

Made for Canada, with global strength

Backed by Canadian quality and powered by local expertise, we manufacture, package, and distribute medicines throughout the region, supporting better access, local jobs, and a reliable supply.

We believe better health shouldn’t depend on geography or income. That’s why we’re working to close treatment gaps, strengthen health systems, and deliver meaningful impact, one medicine, one partnership, one patient at a time.

Expanding access to medicines

From chronic care to complex conditions, we offer a broad portfolio of high-quality, cost-effective treatments designed to meet real-world health needs across Latin America.

Strengthening communities

We invest in health education, community partnerships, and local initiatives, because expanding access also means addressing the broader drivers of wellness.

Building for the future of health

Our purpose drives long-term investment in R&D, regional infrastructure, and local partnerships, ensuring we’re ready to meet the health challenges of tomorrow.
