24 July 1997

Leciva of the Czech Republic has said it would like to increase itsexports to 50% of total pharmaceutical production by 2010 and account for 2% of the central and eastern European drugs market, according to the CTK news agency's Business News. In 1996, the firm produced drugs worth 4.7 billion koruna ($146.9 million) of which 14% was exported to former Soviet Union states, 1.8% to Poland and 1.7% to Romania.
