Perrigo Company plc (NYSE: PRGO) is a leading global provider of over-the-counter (OTC) consumer goods and pharmaceutical products, delivering high-quality healthcare solutions at affordable prices. Established in 1887, Perrigo has grown from a packager of generic home remedies to a top-five global OTC manufacturer and supplier of store-brand infant formulas. Headquartered in Ireland, Perrigo operates across North America, Europe, Australia, Israel, and China.
Perrigo's diverse product portfolio includes private-label consumer health goods sold to major retailers such as Walmart, Amazon, Costco, and CVS.

In recent years, Perrigo has focused on expanding its consumer self-care business.

Perrigo continues to make strides in the industry, as evidenced by its financial performance and strategic partnerships.
