If you’ve been in the pharma business for a while, you know that finding a reliable supplier is often a mess of outdated websites and dead-end contacts. Global API & FDF Hub (api-fdf.com) has been around for over 10 years, serving as a straightforward tool for those who need accurate data without the noise.
Here is a quick look at what you can do with it:
1. Find the Right Supplier (Fast)
Instead of endless searching, you get a clean list of who is actually active in the market.

- Direct Access: No “Contact Us” forms or waiting for a middleman. You get direct phone numbers and emails right in the search results.
- Global Filters: You can filter by country to find manufacturers exactly where you need them. Even traditionally “closed” markets like China are covered.
- Real-Time Data: A real person updates this database daily. Some information comes directly from factory owners, meaning you’ll often find details here before they hit the public web.
2. Inside the API Card: Manual Verification
Once you find a potential partner, you need to know their role and quality standards.

- Producer vs. Supplier: While the search gives you a broad list, the individual product card clearly shows whether the company is the original manufacturer or a supplier (essential for covering shortages).
- Technical Details: Check for GMP status, purity levels, and compliance with various Pharmacopoeias in one click.
- The DMF Advantage: We manually track Drug Master File (DMF) registrations. As soon as a supplier gets one, it’s added to their card—a major time-saver for your registration process.
3. Market Intelligence: FDF & Excipients
If you need to look at the bigger picture, the Finished Dosage Forms (FDF) section helps you map out the competition.

- Market Snapshot: For example, you can see which drugs are licensed in Poland, who holds the sales licenses, and in what specific forms they are sold. It’s a great way to understand the market before launching a project.
- Bonus Tools: There is also an Excipients section to help you source everything you need for a formulation in one place.
How to get started
You don’t need a corporate contract to see if the data works for you.
