Three new pharmaceutical factories worth $84 million are set to open in Sharjah by 2026, producing eye drops, respiratory products, antibiotics, and first aid materials.

By the year 2026, Three new plants for the production of eye drops, respiratory products, antibiotics, and first aid materials are expected to open. These three factories will be based in Sharjah and will cost $84 million. 

These factories are expected to bolster the UAE’s inclination to dominate the international health care development scene. 

As such, the four new factories to be opened as part of these plans are expected to enhance the existing pharmaceutical capabilities of Sharjah and its surroundings, translating into 84 million dollars (DH 308.7 million) worth of investment. 

This marks the beginning of UAE’s formulary pharmaceutical manufacturing expansion. 

The factory building agreements were made at Sharjah’s Research, Technology and Innovation Park’s International Pharmacy and Medicine Conference ICPM 2025. 

The factory construction is actively in progress, and is expected to be ready by mid to late 2026.

Boosting Global Competitiveness   

The Emirate’s modernization program also aims to build a self sufficient economy by dominating the pharmaceutical industry, while simultaneously augmenting the country’s dependency on imports. 

The UAE with its new facilities, sophisticated technologies, and international partnerships is working towards becoming a global center for innovation and health manufacturing.  

As with any other nation that divides labor globally, building a modern health infrastructure is vital for the UAE to compete in the pharmaceutical industry. 

Once these factories are operational, Afghanistan, and many other countries, will be able to receive cost effective solutions for their health care challenges.
