Apozeal Pharmaceuticals Expands Bucks County, Pennsylvania, Drug Manufacturing Operations

09/14/2025
Pharmaceutical company Apozeal Pharmaceuticals Inc. plans to expand its operations in Levittown, Pennsylvania. The $4.1 million project is expected to create 70 jobs in Bucks County.

The investment will include new production lines at the company’s existing 70,000-square-foot facility, enabling it to manufacture the remaining seven ANDA products and additional OTC products.

“We’d like to thank Governor Shapiro and his team for their support and investment of $1.1 million towards this expansion,” said Sadath Shareef, Chairman and CEO of Apozeal. “Their support was instrumental in helping bring this project to life. Through this expansion, we are bringing 70 new jobs to the region, and will have the opportunity to greatly expand our product line.”

To support the project Apozeal Pharmaceuticals received a funding proposal from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) that includes a Pennsylvania Industrial Development Authority (PIDA) loan of $925,000, a $150,000 Pennsylvania First Grant, and a $100,000 WEDnet grant to train its workers.

“Life sciences is one of the five key sectors outlined in our Economic Development Strategy, and we’re focused on ensuring this industry continues to thrive in Pennsylvania,” noted DCED Secretary Rick Siger. “Apozeal’s investment is another great example of the growth we’re supporting across the Commonwealth.”

Apozeal Pharmaceuticals develops and manufactures high-quality, affordable branded and generic drugs, including oral liquid solutions, suspensions, and suppositories. The company currently owns 11 FDA-approved Abbreviated New Drug Application products along with several over-the-counter items for cough, cold, pain, and fever.
