So let´s start with how it all began.

History of production in current premises is dated up to 19th century. In that time, businessman Karel Kubelka started production of malt in his company in Olomouc - Černovír. When Czechoslovakia was established, the company started with production of edible salt and later, the owners focused on a completely new field - chemistry. Production of medicines was established few years after that and in 1948, large-scale production of pharmaceutical substances by chemical way started. In 1952, the company was established independent and renamed to Farmakon n. p. In ´80s, huge multi-purpose halls were designed and in ´90s, portfolio of products started to change. This period was characterized by transformation of large-volume production to narrowly specialized, small-volume.
