DKSH acquires Thai active pharmaceutical ingredient distributor

Swiss distribution services group DKSH has agreed to acquire P.R. Chemicals, a Thai active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) distributor, as part of its expansion strategy in Thailand and broader Southeast Asia.

The transaction, announced on Thursday, did not disclose financial terms. P.R. Chemicals employs 27 staff and reported revenue exceeding 11 million Swiss francs in 2025, with profitability described as strong by DKSH.

The deal is scheduled to finalize in the fourth quarter of 2026, pending customary regulatory approvals. DKSH operates as a market expansion services provider, offering logistics, distribution, and regulatory support across healthcare and other industries in the region.

The acquisition underscores DKSH’s focus on strengthening its pharmaceutical supply chain capabilities in high-growth markets, particularly in Thailand, where the company has identified significant growth potential.
