The decision has been taken to visit exactly Joint Stock Company „Olainfarm”, because 

the company has close and fruitful connection to Ukraine.



Firstly, medications of JSC „Olainfarm” are popular among Ukrainian consumers and 

acknowledged among doctors and pharmacists. The company has strong positions at Ukrainian 

market of pharmaceutical products and it holds one of the leading places among foreign 

manufacturers.



Secondly, JSC „Olainfarm” is actively supporting Ukrainian cultural and social events 

in Ukraine as well as in Latvia:

* takes part in Ukrainian state anti-tuberculosis program by supplying preparations to 

  the hospitals;

* provides humanitarian aid by offering necessary medications (for example, in March of 

  2001 the company helped victims of floods in western Ukraine);

* in September of year 2004 JSC „Olainfarm” participated in celebrations of 13th 

  anniversary of Ukrainian Independence in Latvia by supporting organization of Ukrainian

is certified in accordance with European Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), USA inspection 

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and ISO 14001:1996 requirements which is promoting 

maintenance of the image of the positive Latvian manufacturer in Latvian – Ukrainian mutual 

economic relationships.



Tatjana Lukina, Member of JSC „Olainfarm” Council:



Ukraine is one of most important sales markets of JSC „Olainfarm” products. This country 

for many years now is taking persistent third place from the overall sales amounts of 

the company. Sales growth of JSC „Olainfarm” products on Ukrainian market makes around 

30% a year.



For the sixth year now a function of representative of JSC „Olainfarm” in Ukraine is 

performed by company „Olfa”. Approximately 70 medicinal representatives are occupied with 

promotion of  JSC „Olainfarm” medications on the territory of whole Ukraine: in Kiev, 

Dnipropetrovs’k, Doneck, Odessa, Vinnic, Lvov, Krim etc. JSC „Olainfarm” is cooperating 

with Ukrainian scientists in development of new preparations. For example, this year the 

promotion in Ukraine has been initiated for new medication „Olatropil” which is the joint 

development of Ukrainian academic Gromov and JSC „Olainfarm”.



During coming years JSC „Olainfarm” is planning:

* to expand assortment of products for Ukrainian market and start sale of medications 

already well known in Latvia such as „Gripofleks”, ‘Furasol”, „Rimavir” children’s 

formulation for „Remantadin” and many more.

* to participate in state oncological program with anti-cancer product „Ciklofosfan”.



Today we really are pleased and honored to welcome Ukrainian parliament delegation and 

its Chairman V.E. Volodimir Litvin at our manufacturing plant. And I am hoping that visit 

of Mr. Litvin shall even more add to trust to JSC „Olainfarm” products at Ukrainian market.
