A third generation family business
Halewood Chemicals is a producer & distributor of generic pharmaceuticals and raw materials. Based in the United Kingdom, we export all over the world.
Founded as a wholesaler of medicines and raw materials, Halewood has since expanded into the development and licensing of own brand generic pharmaceutical finished products and over-the-counter (OTC) healthcare products.
The Halewood Chemicals Group was formed by Dr Gordon James Pritchard in 1947. Over the past 70 years, the group has provided healthcare products to healthcare professionals all over the world – from small projects to national tenders.
To this day it continues to be a family business, with Dr Pritchard’s daughter, Susan, the current managing director.
As a third-generation family business, everything we do is underpinned by integrity, trust, excellence, and a conviction to always think long-term.
We assure the highest quality for our customers
The United Kingdom’s strong regulatory environment and high manufacturing standards ensure we can deliver the highest quality healthcare products to you.
