Exciting Growth & Expansion

Phoenix Labs was incorporated in June 2000.

Since then we have been a leading player in the Irish pharmaceutical market and have expanded through organic growth and through the acquisition of T.P. Whelehan & Co Ltd from Uniphar Plc in October 2010.

Over the last number of years the business has grown significantly with the acquisition of Dendron Brands Ltd (formerly DDD ltd) based in Watford, UK in 2020 and most recently the acquisition of Phoenix Healthcare (formerly Ricesteele) based in Dublin in 2021.

The Phoenix Lab Group is proud of its expanding businesses which now include market-leading brands like Uniflu, Exputex, Dioralyte and a range of other prescription and OTC products.

We have exciting growth and expansion plans which include:

  • Promoting our brands to General Practitioners, Hospitals and Retail Pharmacies in Ireland with a dedicated sales team
  • Sourcing and acquiring mature brands with further growth potential
  • Development and promotion of niche generic products
  • Licencing and Rebranding products in new and developing markets
  • Contract manufacturing
