Company Overview

Perrigo Company plc is a global consumer self-care and over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceutical company focused on providing affordable health and wellness solutions. The company operates primarily in the consumer healthcare, OTC pharmaceuticals, and self-care medical products industries, with a strategic emphasis on store-brand and private-label offerings. Perrigo’s core revenue is driven by OTC medicines, vitamins and supplements, infant formula, personal care products, and prescription pharmaceuticals with limited competition.

The company serves major retailers, pharmacies, healthcare providers, and consumers across multiple regions, positioning itself as a leading supplier of private-label health products. Perrigo’s competitive advantage lies in its scale in store-brand manufacturing, regulatory expertise, and diversified product portfolio that spans everyday health categories. Founded in 1887 in the United States, Perrigo evolved from a niche pharmaceutical supplier into a global self-care company through decades of organic growth, strategic acquisitions, and a corporate re-domiciling to Ireland in 2013.
