Striving to be one of the most trusted names in the generic industry.

First established in 1993 as a subsidiary of the Upjohn Company, Greenstone LLC (Peapack, NJ)?formerly called GreenstoneLtd?offers a continuous and growing line of high-quality generic pharmaceuticals.

In 2003, Greenstone became the generic subsidiary of Pfizer Inc, and today the company is considered one of the longest-running and most respected marketers of innovator authorized generics in the United States. Greenstone provides a vigorous product pipeline that highlights quality generic equivalents to some of the best-selling branded pharmaceuticals on the market.

Corporate Strategy

In addition to its name change, Greenstone has embarked on an aggressive new corporate strategy, according to Bill Kennally, president of Greenstone. Specifically, Greenstone has become part of a separate and distinct profit center within Pfizer?Global Established Products.
