Our journey
From a modest company with a portfolio of several cosmetic products, we have established ourselves as a major and reliable producer of pharmaceutical products that help manage a wide range of health problems. Nowadays some of them are among the best-selling in the Czech Republic and the most recommended in their categories. We’re constantly expanding our production capacity and scope, and in 2021 we successfully registered our first drug in six European countries.
Company established
The purely Czech company Neofyt s. r. o.. was founded by three natural persons. Its aim was to become a significant, stable and reliable producer of phytopharmaceuticals. The initial product portfolio had eight cosmetics.

The production premises in Malý Bor put into operation
A year after setting up the company, we started running our own production facilities in Malý Bor in the Pilsen Region. The company's main office and warehouses are located in Stříbrná Skalica, about 20 km south of Prague, in the quiet environs of the Posázaví District.
2007
Production of medical devices containing medicinal substances starts
We expanded our product portfolio to medical devices containing medicinal substances. This step brought the company more demanding legislative requirements as a manufacturer. Since its inception our company has been working in accordance with ISO standards and we are gradually introducing more demanding quality systems which are necessary for manufacturing medical devices.

Kolodium forte is the best-selling in its category
On the basis of the marketing research conducted by Nielsen, which has a reputation of world-renown as concerns market research, the medical device Kolodium forte was evaluated as the best-selling product in pharmacies for removing warts in the Czech Republic.
