– In 2025, our diversification strategy once again proved its advantages. Our core segment of wholesale distribution of medicines, combined with the manufacture segment, once again showed relatively high resistance to exchange rate fluctuations and high variability in the area of clinical trials, which, combined with dynamic growth in the area of the medical operator, allowed to maintain the net result at a level close to 2024. We are already in 2026 and we are seeing further events that will have an impact not only on the global market but also on our market. We are prepared. We respond and we are convinced that we will meet all the challenges and expectations of customers, partners, and above all patients – says Grzegorz Dzik, President of the Board of Directors of NEUCA S.A.
Last year, the pharmaceutical wholesale market was growing dynamically. Despite the challenges, the industry has kept steady growth driven by rising drug prices and increased demand. The introduction of new rules for prescriptions marked “Dz” (children) and “S” (seniors over 65 years of age) on February 14 last year significantly affected the structure of trade and the supply chain. NEUCA also noted high increases in the value of sales of reimbursed prescription drugs by more than 15% and not reimbursed ones by more than 13%9. GLP-1 agonists, used also in the treatment of obesity, still predominate in this segment in value terms. A rise in the value of sales of drugs from this group compared to the previous year is more than double. It has a significant impact on the average retail price of a non-reimbursable Rx drug package which increased year-on-year by as much as 11%10.
