George Petrou Ltd was established in 1964 by Mr George Petrou who has been involved in the Pharmaceutical business since 1961, when he was engaged by Sterling Winthrop International to start and develop their business in Cyprus, with their then new product Panadol.

Even though George Petrou Ltd originated as a pure Pharmaceutical Company, over the years the Company has developed in other fields of business such as Nutraceuticals, Baby Nutrition, Dermocosmetics, Cosmetics, Medical Devices, Disinfectants, Dental Care, Medical Supplies and other Pharmacy Essentials.

The business is firmly established in its wholly owned premises from where the running of the business as well as the promotion and distribution of the products are organised. In July 2008, George Petrou Ltd moved to its new 2500m2 premises situated in the Latsia Industrial Area in Nicosia. Even though the management is centralized in Nicosia, George Petrou Ltd has two branches in Limassol and Larnaca, which are responsible for the Limassol & Paphos Districts and Larnaca & Famagusta Districts respectively.

Today, George Petrou Ltd is one of the leading Pharmaceutical Companies in Cyprus with over 40 representations and a portfolio consisting of more than 65 established Brands. The vast majority of our products can be found in all pharmacies situated on the island, whereas more specialized products are supplied amongst others to Hospitals, Clinics, Dentists and Physiotherapists.
