Ego export excellence
October 2, 2015
EGO Pharmaceuticals is
celebrating after being awarded the
2015 Governor of Victoria Export
Health and Biotechnology Award.
Ego began exporting in 1962, with
overseas markets in 25 nations
across the Asia-Pacific, Middle East
and Europe now comprising more
than a third of the company’s sales.
The 100% family owned company
is committed to maintaining and
improving skin health in Australia
and across the world.
It has 440 staff, more than a
quarter of whom are based in 11
overseas countries, and will create
100 new jobs this financial year.
The Governor’s award recognises
outstanding international
success in medical, healthcare or
biotechnology fields for products,
technology, equipment or services.
Pictured above are Ego managing
director Alan Oppenheim and
members of the international team
with the award.
The win caps off a few big days
for Ego, which last week won
three categories in the 2015
annual Australian Mother & Baby
Magazine awards.
QF Baby Moisturising Cream took
out the Gold award for the most
popular baby skincare product; QF
Baby Barrier Cream was awarded
silver in the Nappy Rash category;
while QF Baby Gentle Wash
received the bronze award in the
Best Baby Hair Product category.
The QV range is exclusively
available in pharmacy, so “a win like
this is fantastic for driving mothers
into pharmacy,” the company said.
