Contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) refers to an organization that partners with pharmaceutical companies to provide drug development and manufacturing services on a contractual basis. CDMO can help these firms outsource the manufacturing of drugs as well as assist in the development activities involved before the manufacturing process. Partnering with a CDMO offers multiple benefits to the pharmaceutical company such as reduced infrastructure costs, expertise from skilled staff, and necessary manufacturing capacity to increase production.
According to the data released by the World Health Organisation (WHO), chronic diseases or non-communicable diseases cause 41 million deaths every year, accounting for 74% of deaths globally. The prevalence of these chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and diabetes, responsible for increasing mortality rates, fuels the need for effective treatment options like novel drugs and therapies. Subsequently, this elevates the contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market demand as more and more pharmaceutical companies are opting for such services to offer improved and efficient solutions to patients.
Increased Mergers and Acquisitions to Expedite Drug Development and Delivery
Contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs) are increasingly engaging in mergers and acquisitions to keep up with changing customer requirements, which is a significant trend aiding market growth. In June 2023, KBI Biopharma, Inc., a cell line development CDMO, merged with Selexis SA, a global life sciences company, integrating as one organization under the name KBI Biopharma. This merger event will streamline drug development and manufacturing processes, including clinical and cGMP manufacturing services for mammalian programs.
Strategic partnerships can reduce manufacturing risks and accelerate the commercialization process of drugs by employing integrated resources and solutions. In January 2024, Kindeva Drug Delivery (a global CDMO specializing in drug-device combination products), announced the acquisition of Summit Biosciences Inc. (an intranasal drug delivery CDMO in the United States), to enhance its drug delivery capabilities and expand its biopharma customer base. The acquisition aims to offer improved intranasal drug delivery options in the coming years.
Strategic Investments Reinforce Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) Market Growth and Expansion
In July 2023, a leading biopharmaceuticals CDMO, Biovian announced its decision to invest EUR 50 million to facilitate the expansion of its manufacturing unit in Finland. The facility will be constructed in an area of 69,000 sq. ft, harboring advanced technologies to aid the development of Advanced Therapy Medical Products (ATMP), including adeno-associated viral therapies. The investment will help in increasing the production capacity of the company to align with the growing size of the CDMO market.
To meet the rising market demand, CDMOs are rapidly expanding their manufacturing capacities and capabilities to deliver optimal services to their customers at a larger scale. Strategic investments have enabled the leading CDMO players in the market to adapt to the changing landscape in the biopharmaceutical industry.

North America has been leading the contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market during the historical period. This can be attributed to the presence of top CDMO players in the region who are constantly making investments and taking mergers and acquisitions initiatives to upscale their drug manufacturing capacities. In January 2023, a United States-based CDMO, Agilent Technologies reported a USD 725 million investment to double its manufacturing capacity. The investment was made to accommodate the surge in the therapeutic nucleic acids market and develop drugs targeting prevalent diseases like cancer and cardiovascular diseases.
Europe is another major market expected to hold a substantial contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market share in the coming years. The robust medical infrastructure and advanced healthcare system drive the demand for novel drugs and vaccines to treat and prevent chronic diseases. Consequently, the major biopharmaceutical firms are working towards catering to the unmet medical needs of the patients.
In January 2023, Lottee Biologics, a CDMO company headquartered in South Korea, announced its investment plan of USD 3 billion to build three mega plants, each with a production capacity of 360,000 liters by 2030. The company is expected to begin commercial production by 2027, aiming to generate USD 3 billion in revenue by 2034 and bolster the biopharma ecosystem, thereby accelerating the discovery of new therapeutics. The rising trend of internal investments by prominent biopharmaceutical companies is anticipated to increase the contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market size in the forecast period.
