Founded in 1909 and headquartered in Sant Cugat del Vallès near Barcelona, Spain, the company operates in over 110 countries with a direct presence in more than 30 countries and regions, including the world's largest network of approximately 400 plasma donation centers primarily in North America, Europe and through partnerships in China and Africa. Grifols serves patients with rare, chronic and life-threatening conditions, hospitals, pharmacies, blood banks and life science researchers, focusing on therapeutic areas where plasma-based treatments often represent the only viable options.
