Pharmaceutical & API manufacturing sites in South Korea

155 drug establishments in South Korea are registered with the US FDA; 41 (26%) list API manufacture among their operations. 141 registrant companies are identified, 3 of them with more than one API site here; sites whose registrant is not resolved to a company profile are not counted. 1 published site is matched to an EU or UK GMP certificate inspected within the last three years.

Counts are physical site addresses in the FDA's current establishment register (US-facing sites only), not headquarters and not production volume. Methodology

A site can register several operations, so these do not add up to the site total.

Companies headquartered in South Korea

Only sites registered with the US FDA appear, so manufacturing that serves only other markets is missing and these figures understate national capacity. A GMP match requires the certificate address to name the site's street and its city or postcode; an unmatched site is not an uncertified site.
