700 medicines are missing: How supply works despite shortages

Hardly any other company influences the supply of medicines in Switzerland as strongly as Galenica. Through its wholesale subsidiary Galexis, the company supplies two-thirds of all pharmacies in Switzerland, as well as doctors, hospitals and care homes - and moves over 100 million packs each year. Andreas Koch says: "With our logistics, we can ensure that 99% of all available medications are available within one day. But the shortage of medicines is of course a major concern to us, as the products are also missing from our warehouses."
