Square Pharma set to launch factory in Kenya Square Pharmaceuticals will launch its production facility in Kenya within the next four months in a move that will considerably enhance the company's earnings from East African nations. The local drug maker broke ground on its manufacturing plant in Nairobi back in 2018 and although the unit was initially set to begin production in 2020, the project was delayed by unavoidable circumstances. "However, it is now in the final stage of implementation despite the Covid-19 situation," said Samuel S Chowdhury, chairman of Square Pharmaceuticals, in the company's annual report for 2019-20. "As the situation improves, the company will continue to avail every opportunity to further expand and join the club of multinational companies in Bangladesh," he added.
