NORWICH — The Alvogen Company is a part of a local pharmaceutical manufacturing history that goes back 130 years.
The company has a pharmaceutical plant in Norwich and operates in 35 countries. Alvogen held its annual leadership meeting on Friday, March 8 at the Colonia Theatre in Norwich.
Alvogen Human Resources Associate Director Luke Hess-Murphy said about 60 leaders from the company participated in the 2024 Leadership event.
He said over the last ten years, Alvogen invested over $60 million to enable the continuing expansion of the facility in Norwich, inclusive of the equipment to maintain and broaden their portfolio and continued business offerings.
He shared some of the industry’s local history. “In our company's history, we have used the Colonia stage to host many important events,” said Hess-Murphy.
“In April, 1943, the employees of Norwich earned their first Army-Navy ‘E’ Award and in May an award ceremony was held in the Colonia Theatre to recognize the company's success in providing quality products to the military for the war efforts,” said Hess-Murphy. “The company was awarded the same honor again in November of 1943 and for the third time in 1944.”
“The Barnes family have done a tremendous job in restoring the former balcony area of the Colonia Theatre and making it so all can enjoy the space,” said Hess-Murphy. “It's a true landmark to the Norwich community.”
Hess-Murphy said this year’s annual meeting was to bring the site leaders together to review their previous business year and to roll out their site and the company's goals and objectives for the year ahead.
“Alvogen's leadership team is dedicated to meeting the needs of their customers and making a difference for patients,” he said.
He said good leadership helps make sure medicines to arrived quickly and safely to market. The team’s focus is making people’s lives better by producing high quality medicines and assuring the opportunity of accessibility to those that may not be able to afford them.
