One of Asia’s leading healthcare services providers, Zuellig Pharma, recently announced the appointment of John Graham as its new Chief Executive Officer. John will run the US$13 billion business and lead the team across 13 markets in Asia.
He joined Zuellig Pharma in 2018 to oversee the development and growth of Zuellig Pharma’s Commercial Solutions business, spearheading the growth of its marketing, sales, business development and regulatory services. He takes over the helm from former CEO John Davison who retired at the end of last month.
