The Rockville site marks Samsung Biologics' first U.S. manufacturing presence, which was acquired in March 2026. To further strengthen its global footprint, Samsung Biologics has established offices in New Jersey, Boston, Tokyo, and Amsterdam.
The company is also in the process of acquiring land for Bio Campus III, a planned site set to support advanced R&D and manufacturing programs for next-generation therapeutics. Samsung Biologics remains committed to expanding its capacity and capability, evaluating additional investments as market demand and client needs evolve.
The company is also exploring opportunities to broaden its product portfolio, including the acquisition of PolyPeptide Group, which would add peptide-based therapeutics to Samsung Biologics' offerings and diversify its global manufacturing network.
