Our company
Laboratoires Pierre Fabre is the 2nd largest dermo-cosmetics company in the world and one of the leading pharmaceutical laboratories in Europe. Founded in the Tarn in 1962 by a humanist, visionary pharmacist, the company is owned by a humanitarian foundation.
A humanist, original purpose
Our purpose is a constant source of energy and inspiration for our employees. It unites us and inspires our decisions.
From the very beginning, our number one focus has always been patients, to whom physicians prescribe our medicines, consumers, to whom pharmacists advise our dermo-cosmetic and family health products, and lastly, the most under-privileged communities, who benefit from the humanitarian programs run by Fondation Pierre Fabre.
