Ferring relocates to new London headquarters

Ferring Pharmaceuticals has relocated its UK headquarters to a new base at Drayton Hall near London.

The company has moved to the refurbished hall from its previous location in Slough as it seeks to develop its UK franchise, with the new site featuring office space for 50 members of staff.

Formerly occupied by the London Borough of Hillingdon and United Biscuits, the site incorporates a purpose-built conference area, meeting rooms and landscaped grounds, reports InPharm.

Ferring's UK general manager Steve Howson said this move will allow the company to continue the double-digit growth shown in Britain over the last few years and underlines its commitment to the region.

"Our new headquarters represent a substantial investment in our business operation and will provide our personnel with significantly improved facilities," he said.

Last week, the company announced new data from a clinical trial of Menopur, demonstrating its effectiveness as part of a fertility treatment regime.
