two years and work in the Group’s Florentine headquarters.
With an average age of 29, more than 90% of Menarini employees hold a degree or a technical
diploma and cover highly qualified profiles.
"We are proud of this achievement - said Lucia Aleotti and Alberto Giovanni Aleotti, Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Menarini Group - and take this opportunity to highlight how being able to hire the 17,000th staff member is largely due to the extraordinary work carried out by all our employees who, with enthusiasm and determination, are the true makers of the success of the Menarini Group."
With the opening of two new affiliates in Peru and Colombia, investments in the Berlin and Pisa
research centers, and the growth of Asia Pacific, Menarini's strategy has always been focused on
both the quality of their products and internationalization. Menarini closed the year 2017 with a urnover of 3.6 billion Euro.
