For Sale/Lease: CMO, CDMO, & API Manufacturing Campus

A fully integrated API/Starting Materials Manufacturing site in Grimsby, UK

A rare opportunity to acquire or lease an FDA, EMA, and MHRA-approved active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing complex with over 1,000 m³ of installed reaction capacity across three process buildings — one large-volume line, one multi-product line, and one multi-product/multi-purpose line. Complete with QA and QC laboratories, R&D space, full utilities, and 90 acres of additional expansion land, this site is built for organizations ready to scale production, innovate new chemistries, or expand CDMO capacity as part of a supply chain regionalization effort.
