About Us
Exela Pharma Sciences is an award-winning, fast-growing US-based integrated specialty pharmaceutical company, founded in 2005. We develop and manufacture proprietary and generic sterile injectable products to address the unique needs of healthcare providers, improve patient experience, and ease drug shortages.
Exela has two distinct and separate business units, Finished Drug Products and Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (aka: CDMO), both leveraging our expert team and significant cGMP sterile manufacturing capacity in liquid vials, IV bags, lyophilized vials, and pre-filled syringes.

Making a Difference
Exela Pharma Sciences is proudly located in Lenoir, North Carolina, a former all-wood furniture production hub in the heart of the beautiful, Blue Ridge Mountains. We have been investing in building commercial sterile injectable cGMP CDMO Pharma capabilities since 2008, long before the recent pandemic highlighted the need for domestic manufacturing. In the process, we have created hundreds of high-paying sustainable pharmaceutical manufacturing jobs which helped to revitalize this economically depressed rural county in North Carolina. Our mission to build state-of-the-art biopharma manufacturing infrastructure while supporting the local economy continues with the expansion of our campus and training programs.
Our Passionate Team
Team Exela is made up of problem solvers and doers from the lab and manufacturing floor to the warehouse and IT department. Our story of success and growth comes from our ability to exceed customers’ expectations with an uncompromising commitment to quality.
