Trade fairs · Frankfurt
From 9 to 11 November 2027, the pharmaceutical industry meets at CPHI, this time back in Germany. A&O Pharma will be there. Talk to us about EU batch release, marketing authorisation, GMP consulting and analytical testing, ideally with a meeting booked in advance.
The organiser expects around 62,000 industry visitors. With a meeting booked in advance, you avoid searching the halls, and we can set aside time for your project.
Book in advance
Send us a few lines about your project. We will get back to you within one to two days and suggest a time to meet on site.
At CPHI Frankfurt
Qualified Persons under § 14 AMG, our own manufacturing and import authorisation (MIA), regulatory affairs and a GMP-certified laboratory. One conversation is enough to clarify what your project needs.
At A&O, you talk to the people who will be responsible for your project later on. We are happy to tell you in advance which of them will be in Frankfurt.
Do you manufacture outside the EU or in Switzerland? We handle import, EU retesting in our own laboratory and batch release.
By the time of the show, our third site near Basel is expected to be up and running: packaging and labelling, including investigational medicinal products, storage and batch release.
Background
CPHI changes location every year. After Milan in 2026, it returns to Messe Frankfurt from 9 to 11 November 2027, with around 62,000 industry visitors expected according to the organiser.
The show is divided into 17 zones, from APIs and contract manufacturing to finished dosage forms and packaging. Seven of them are new for 2027, including Contamination Control, Lab & Analytical Equipment and Labelling. These are exactly A&O's areas of expertise, with our own GMP laboratory in Itzehoe and the new packaging and labelling site in Lörrach.
For us, Frankfurt is almost on home ground: our sites in Efringen-Kirchen and Lörrach are about 285 kilometres away, Itzehoe about 430. You can read how the last CPHI went for us in our CPHI Milan review.
