Partners

The shareholders of Kooperation Phytopharmaka are manufacturers and/or distributors of herbal medicinal products or herbal starting materials, research and investigation bodies for herbal medicinal products and service providers in this field. The shareholders pay an annual contribution, the amount of which is based on their annual gross turnover. The deposit is used to cover administrative and project costs. In this way, the cooperation bundles synergies and enables the implementation of scientifically sound projects, which would often be quite costly for the individual.
