Perrigo Pharmaceutical Products

Perrigo Company plc is a global leader in consumer self-care, specializing in over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, nutrition products, and health and hygiene solutions. Founded in 1887 in Michigan, United States, the brand has grown from a local packager of home remedies into one of the world's largest providers of affordable healthcare products.

Today, Perrigo operates on a massive scale, with major manufacturing and distribution facilities located across the United States, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Mexico, and several other European nations. Their product portfolio includes store-brand alternatives to major pharmaceutical names, making essential self-care products more accessible to the general public.

While the company has deep American roots, it underwent a significant corporate restructuring in 2013, establishing its global headquarters in Ireland. This move established Perrigo as an Irish-domiciled entity, though it maintains a massive corporate and operational presence in the United States, particularly in Grand Rapids and Allegan, Michigan. The company remains an independent, publicly traded entity, focusing on expanding its presence in the global self-care market.
