ABVC BioPharma Expands Silicon Valley Operations with Multi-Product Facility Supporting Up to 1,000 Jobs by 2030

ABVC BioPharma has announced significant operational enhancements at its BioKey subsidiary's 28,176-square-foot pharmaceutical development and manufacturing facility in Silicon Valley, positioning the site as a central component of the company's global chemistry, manufacturing, and controls strategy. The Fremont, California facility incorporates formulation development laboratories, analytical laboratories, quality-aligned production areas, and warehousing, with expansion capacity that allows multiple development programs to operate simultaneously within a single integrated U.S. location.

The facility operates as a single-location, multi-product development center supporting pharmaceutical formulations, botanical and plant-based products, controlled-release and specialized solid-oral dosage forms, and functional food and nutraceutical products. All activities from formulation through pilot-scale preparation are performed entirely within the United States, creating a fully domestic development pathway that reduces cross-border complexities and enhances supply-chain resilience. This domestic approach addresses growing concerns about international supply chain vulnerabilities in pharmaceutical and functional food manufacturing.

BioKey's comprehensive operational capabilities include formulation development for pharmaceuticals and functional food products, process development and pilot-scale preparation, analytical testing, stability studies, quality documentation, and technical and regulatory support for U.S. and international submissions. The integrated structure enables simultaneous support of multiple therapeutic and nutraceutical projects under coordinated oversight, making the facility attractive to potential partners seeking comprehensive development services.

The expansion outlook through 2030 represents one of the most significant aspects of this development, with ABVC anticipating that BioKey's expanded activities, operational growth, and partner-supported programs will support up to 1,000 jobs across formulation, analytical development, quality operations, regulatory support, documentation, data management, and supply-chain coordination. This job creation potential comes at a time when the biopharmaceutical industry faces increasing demand for skilled manufacturing and development personnel.

With over 12,054 square feet of expansion-ready space, the Fremont site can accommodate additional analytical capacity, expanded development and production workflows, technology-transfer and documentation centers, and functional food and clinical material preparation zones. This expansion capacity provides flexibility for future growth as market demands evolve and new partnership opportunities emerge. Dr. Uttam Patil, ABVC's Chief Executive Officer, emphasized that "BioKey is an essential pillar of ABVC's global development strategy" and that the Silicon Valley facility provides "a fully U.S.-based platform capable of supporting multiple pharmaceutical, botanical, and functional food programs from early formulation through pilot preparation."

The facility's multi-product capabilities are particularly significant given ABVC BioPharma's clinical-stage status with an active pipeline of six drugs and one medical device under development. The company utilizes in-licensed technology from research institutions including Stanford University, University of California at San Francisco, and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, creating a network that benefits from the facility's enhanced capabilities.
