As the general director of Otisipharm JSC Olga Mednikova said at the opening, the Kaliningrad division will produce up to 320 million packages of drugs per year, or more than 2 billion tablets. However, the plant will not start working at full capacity immediately - this year it is planned to produce about 50 million packages, including 16 million packages of drugs included in the list of vital. What kind of drugs are we talking about here, Mednikova did not specify.

According to Mednikova, there are no acute problems with the delivery of components for the production of drugs to the Kaliningrad region.

We experience difficulties, but they are solved. Currently, the entire route is being built from St. Petersburg and so far meets all our needs and opportunities. In the future, Anton Andreevich [Alikhanov, Governor of the Kaliningrad Region] and I discussed that other opportunities would be considered. We don't see any logistical difficulties, "she said.

Anton Alikhanov, in turn, added that all the components necessary for production are imported into the region with containers. "We have no problems with container transportation, no queues for containerized cargo."^[1]
