Dr. Frederick Edward Zuellig emigrated from Switzerland to the Philippines, and joined a local trading
company. Shortly thereafter, he founded F.E. Zuellig Inc., which was the predecessor of Zuellig Pharma.
In 1946, the Drug Department of F.E. Zuellig, Inc. was established for the importation and local
distribution of pharmaceutical products for multinational principals. In 1953, Pharma Industries, Inc. was
incorporated to provide local manufacturing services for multinational principals. Meanwhile, the Drug
Department maintained its importation and local distribution functions.
In 1982, Pharma Industries changed its name to Zuellig Pharma Corporation to identify itself more closely
with the Zuellig Group of Companies. In early 2002, the four distinct business units of Zuellig Pharma,
Interpharma Manufacturing, Pharmalink and InterHealth Technology were aligned under one corporate
umbrella: Interpharma Asia Pacific. Organized under the holding company of the same name,
Interpharma Asia Pacific embodied the company's transition from a traditional family-run enterprise to a
more independent corporate style-structure.

Zuellig Pharma at present

Today, Zuellig Pharma is the premiere pharmaceutical distribution business in Asia Pacific. From its base
in the Philippines, it has grown into one of the largest multinational pharmaceutical distribution companies
in Asia with operations stretching from the Philippinesto Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, the
People's Republic of China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Vietnam, New Zealand, Korea, Indonesia and
the Indochina countries of Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia.

Capabilities of the Company

Zuellig Pharma is the only pharmaceutical distributor in the Philippines that offers an integrated
network of 10 regional distribution centers throughout Metro Manila, Provincial Luzon, the Visayas,
and Mindanao. Supplied from the Canlubang national distribution center, this network provides fast,
responsive service to customers in geographically challenging markets, reducing the risks associated
with dependence on a single distribution center for supply.

Each of our 10 warehouses has sufficient cold chain capability to provide security and integrity of
product quality throughout the distribution network. No other distributor provides this level of
integration in cold chain capability. Our cold chain infrastructure includes back-up chiller capacity as
well as back-up power generators to ensure seamless operations in the event of power interruptions.

Our 10 distribution facilities, and our back-office functions including Customer Service, Credit
Control, Transport, and the Mercury Account Group - are all ISO 9001 (2000) accredited. These
operations follow Good Distribution Practices and are regularly audited by our principals.

A team of supply chain analysts is committed to the needs of each principal, managing inventory
levels and ensuring adequacy of supply throughout the country. Our nationwide service level,
excluding principal stock-outs, exceeds 99%. We make sure that our principals have their products
where they need it, when they need it, and that the demands of the trade are met to customers'
satisfaction.
