The production plant in Grodzisk Mazowiecki has a similarly long tradition, having been founded in 1885 under the name Krell and Co. Chemical Plant (Fabryka Chemiczna Krell i Spółka). The factory in Grodzisk began to manufacture the first pharmaceutical products in 1906. After the Second World War the production plants in Grodzisk became part of the “Polfa” Pharmaceutical Company, adopting the name Polfa Grodzisk. The factory and laboratories in Grodzisk were some of the most active facilities of their type in Poland at the time, producing a wide range of domestic pharmaceuticals. In 2002 the companies have combined their experience – The Grodzisk plant has become part of Gedeon Richter, a global pharmaceutical company.
