Rontis Corporation produces the Rontamil infant nutrition family of formulas, which so far has been promoted and distributed in the Greek market via its subsidiary entity Rontis Hellas S.A. Rontamil product family is considered as one of the most competitive formulas due to its unique nutritional characteristics.

Following strategic decisions for the presence and the activities of the Rontis subsidiary in south – eastern Europe, the Rontis Infant Nutrition products will be distributed and promoted by ELPEN Pharmaceutical Co Inc. This decision will come into effect on December 1st, 2015.

Both companies’ intention is to enable the establish ment by ELPEN of a focused Pediatric Business Unit within a strong Greek but at the same time multinational pharmaceutical company, which will be in position to promote the complete range of the Rontis Infant Nutrition portfolio, along with the other pediatric products that ELPEN Pharmaceutical Co Inc is already successfully promoting within the specific territory.
Our common target is to avoid disruption in the supply chain and ensure smooth transition to the new reality, which will not affect pharmacies’ or end – customers’ stable supply.

ELPEN Pharmaceutical Co Inc was founded in 1965 and is headquartered in Athens, Greece. Ever since its foundation, ELPEN’s evolution to become the leading Greek pharmaceutical company, was experienced by means of significant milestone events with the passing of each decade.

Rontis Corporation S.A., based in Zug, Switzerland, was established in 1986 and operates 3 manufacturing plants in Europe. It develops and manufactures – among others – a complete range of infant nutrition products, which aside the standard Rontamil 1 – 2 – 3 formulas, it also includes specialty formulas such as Rontamil AC (anti – colic) and Rontamil TR (treating constipation). Rontis vision is to make Rontamil as the infant nutrition product of choice internationally for HCPs and consumers alike.

Through the supply of the complete range of the Rontis infant nutrition product portfolio, ELPEN will further enhance its position to pediatricians, in addition to its existing portfolio and will now be in position to put more focus on the specific segment, in order to drive growth for its entire infant portfolio.

By virtue of this extended exclusive distribution agreement, both Rontis and ELPEN commit to continue contributing to society by serving additional healthcare needs of the market and assisting in improving people’s quality of life.
