How many distributors does Pfizer have?
28,000 global manufacturing and distribution colleagues. Supplying medicines and vaccines to 181 countries. Delivering more than 25 billion doses every year.
The largest manufacturing site in the Pfizer network is located in Kalamazoo, Michigan. This 1,300 acre facility manufactures active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), drug products (DP) and medical devices.
Pfizer sells its products through wholesalers, retailers, hospitals, clinics, government agencies and pharmacies.
It distributes about 65 drugs in the United States. GlaxoSmithKline has more than 80 manufacturing sites including in the U.K., the U.S., and Asia.
Our distribution is built on a flexible just-in-time system which will ship the frozen vials to the point of vaccination. The intent is to utilize Pfizer-strategic transportation partners to ship by air to major hubs within a country/region and by ground transport to dosing locations.
