Formulation Development Outsourcing Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028


The global formulation development outsourcing market size reached US$ 22.6 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 33.7 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.89% during 2022-2028.

Formulation development refers to the process of determining patentability, lifecycle, and the success of the pharmaceutical product. It also involves pre-formulation, including analytical assay development and characterization, excipient screening to stabilize or enhance the solubility of the product and dosage form development. It is often outsourced due to time pressure and a lack of internal resources. Formulation development outsourcing also offers numerous benefits, such as compressing timelines, accessing expertise, and providing extra insurance against product failure.

Formulation Development Outsourcing Market Trends:
The growing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cancer, asthma, arthritis, and Alzheimer’s disease, is catalyzing the demand for the discovery and development of new drugs. This, in turn, represents one of the key factors resulting in the formulation development services being outsourced to contract research organizations (CROs) around the world. Besides this, there is a rise in the need to overcome the risk and save time and money involved in passing the drug through the development pipeline. As a result, leading pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies worldwide are partnering with outsourcing services in the early phases of the drug development process. This, along with a significant increase in the need to innovate novel drugs on account of the rising patent expirations of major drugs, is contributing to market growth. Furthermore, expanding healthcare expenditure by business enterprises and governing agencies of several countries is creating a favorable market outlook. Moreover, the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak has positively influenced the need for clinical trials to find an effective treatment against the contagious infection. This has resulted in extensive investments in research and development (R&D) to develop therapeutics, which is projected to drive the market.
