Contract Pharmacal Corp.

If you’re talking about pharmaceutical giants on Long Island, you will most likely hear the name Contract Pharmacal Corporation (CPC). That’s because CPC occupies ten facilities in the Hauppauge Industrial Park, all of which serve a unique purpose in helping CPC manufacture 10-11 billion dosage forms annually. Compared to approximately one million dosage forms produced per week in the 1990’s, CPC’s growth has been exponential.

Being located here in the industrial park has made it easier for us to do business because there are suppliers locally for labels, boxes, testing labs, everything we don’t do internallyMark Wolf, President of CPC

When CPC needed new space and expanded space in 2010, it made sense for the Suffolk IDA to forge a partnership with the innovative manufacturer. The IDA extended existing PILOT agreements and helped secure essential incentives, capital grants and tax credits to help CPC expand business operations in Suffolk County and add hundreds of jobs on Long Island. Fast forward eight years, and CPC again found their facilities operating at their absolute maximum capacity due to rapid growth. They again reached out to the Suffolk IDA for assistance. The IDA approved a transaction to provide an incentives package for CPC’s purchase of a new 17,500 square foot building. In time, this expansion of facilities is expected to add over 150 new jobs.

CPC’s workforce now stands at over 1,400 employees, comprising skilled workers from various industries who come to Long Island for both its opportunities and lifestyle.
