HEALTH, OUR PATH


Since 1937, when a small pharmacy in Seville laid the foundations of what is now Normon, the company has grown to become a benchmark in the pharmaceutical sector. With a presence in over 90 countries and one of the most advanced facilities in Europe, it continues to promote access to quality treatments.

In 2024, Normon produced over 345 million units and nearly 5 billion doses at its facilities in Tres Cantos (Madrid), where more than 3,200 professionals work each day with a clear purpose: caring for people’s health. Every second, four Normon treatments are dispensed in pharmacies across Spain, highlighting the impact of its vade mecum of generic medicines, the most extensive on the market. In addition, its hospital line is present in nearly all clinics and hospitals across the country, holding a 19.1% share of units in the hospital market.

For over 30 years, Normon has supported dentists with a wide range of specific products. One in every two patients is treated with its dental anesthesia, reinforcing its position as a leader in the sector.
