Leancare Limited was set up in 1992 as a specialist sourcing and trading company servicing the Fine Chemical and Pharmaceutical industry worldwide.

Our main focus is to help our clients by finding producers for ‘difficult-to-find’ key raw materials and pharma-intermediates. This leads naturally onto out-sourcing custom synthesis projects, where there is no obvious commercial producer, but the client needs the product as a key raw material. This can be achieved as a technology transfer, where the client provides an information package under secrecy agreement, or as real ‘blue-sky’ chemistry where the producer’s own in-house expertise allows them to offer a completely new commercial product, never before available.

We have built up a unique pool of knowledge and expertise and compiled our own database of products and potential suppliers. We spend a large proportion of our time visiting producers and their facilities, finding out what their capabilities are; what they are good at and what may be beyond them.

What makes us unique is the amount of time and effort we devote to building a real relationship and mutual understanding with our clients and producers alike so that we can match one with the other in the best possible way.

Our logistics knowledge forms a critical part of the service we provide and we know how to move hazardous chemicals around the world. We can also carry out factory audits on our clients’ behalf and report back on our findings. We try to work within the priorities that the client sets and to understand their pressures and priorities – lower price, shorter delivery times, better quality – whatever it is we want to understand.

We enjoy and are passionate about what we do and believe that we provide a valuable service to our clients – more often than not we can find a solution to their needs, when no-one else could – by taking care of the sourcing, purchasing, logistics and delivery. That’s why we state: “Leancare – Providing the Complete Sourcing Solution”.
