Brazil Market Access via ANVISA CADIFA Approval

Wanbury Limited has secured a CADIFA (Letter of Suitability for API) from Brazil's National Health Surveillance Agency, ANVISA, for its flagship product, Metformin HCl EP grade. This regulatory milestone serves as a critical entry point for the Brazilian pharmaceutical market, as it enables local manufacturers to incorporate Wanbury active ingredients into their finished drug formulations. The approval is the third consecutive clearance the company has received from ANVISA, reflecting a consistent regulatory track record in the South American region.

Following the notification, the management confirmed that they have already commenced negotiations with various customers to scale supply volumes in this geography.

Expanding Global Footprint for Metformin HCl API

The Metformin HCl portfolio has seen significant regulatory momentum throughout 2026. In October, Wanbury received Australian TGA GMP compliance for its Tanuku plant, covering Metformin alongside five other APIs. Furthermore, the company recently secured nine USFDA No DMF Deficiency letters for the product and previously won a 15 crore annual tender in Mexico.

This Brazilian approval complements an existing commercial pipeline that includes a 10 crore per year supply agreement in Saudi Arabia. These clearances are part of a broader strategy to leverage the flagship API across regulated markets including North America, Europe, and now South America.

  • October 2026: Confirmed 25 crore annual commercial pipeline via Saudi Arabia and Mexico deals
