Switzerland-based Ferring Pharmaceuticals has purchased a 25-acre site in Parsippany, N.J.  The new facility will house a state-of-the art, expanded U.S. Operations Center. The expansion is expected to generate jobs in the New Jersey area.

The U.S. Operations Center will be a fully integrated pharmaceutical facility that will house management, administration and support, commercial operations, manufacturing and product development.  It will include a state-of-the-art manufacturing suite, next-generation product development laboratories, a fully equipped education and training conference center, and administrative offices.

"As a private company, Ferring has a long term orientation, as well as a commitment to follow the science to benefit patients. This new facility underscores our long-term commitment to the U.S. market, as well as the state of New Jersey," said Aaron Graff, president and chief operating officer of Ferring Pharmaceuticals.

The Switzerland-based company has experienced consistent double-digit growth in the U.S. and has approximately 600 U.S. employees. Globally Ferring has nearly 5,000 employees with operations in more than 45 countries.
