- Which different businesses do you see within the CAF company?
Business 1: Research and development of new products (Pharmaceutical laboratories)
The CAF company moved the business to the market of dermatology (skincare products). Thanks to the pharmacist Jorge, the company succeeded in developing new products of skincare (mainly for sunscreen, also for some products of anti-aging, psoriasis, etc).
Business 2: Sales of medical products
Leaded by the director Alfonso, the CAF company set up a network of sales representatives close to dermatologists, spreading the products quickly by dermatologists.
With the development of the company, CAF opened subsidiaries in other countries.
Business 3: Manufacturing
The new factory built in Alcala had the ability to manufacture flexibly all the products according to different requirements or standards of the orders.
