Indian pharma firm defers Rwanda manufacturing plant

Cadila Pharmaceuticals, India, has deferred its plans to construct a manufacturing plant at Rwanda, central Africa, in collaboration with US based Holtzman Group.

Cadila Pharmaceuticals chairman I A Modi was quoted by Business Standard as saying that the company is in a wait-and-watch mode regarding the Rwanda project.

"No work has started on ground. We will take a call at the appropriate time," Modi added.

The proposed $65m facility was likely to produce solids, tablets and capsules; liquids, gels, ointments, creams and syrups; biologicals, injectables and vaccines and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

The plant was expected to be fully operational by 2015.
