Celebration of the 71st Anniversary of PT Phapros Tbk: Rising to Unite Goals in the Spirit of Health and Togetherness
The spirit of togetherness and a healthy lifestyle colored the celebration of the 71st anniversary of PT Phapros Tbk, which fell on June 21, 2025. Entering its 71st year, PT Phapros Tbk has firmly stepped forward as a resilient, innovative, and adaptive pharmaceutical company. As a form of gratitude for its long journey full of challenges and successes, Phapros held an anniversary celebration in Semarang and at its head office in Jakarta. The events in both cities were filled with various inspiring activities. This year's anniversary celebration carried the theme "Rising to Unite Goals," as a symbol of the spirit of togetherness and the company's determination to continue moving forward in facing the future.
Activities at the Semarang Simongan Factory
The atmosphere of spirit and togetherness was strongly felt in the area of PT Phapros Tbk's factory located in Semarang. Phapros employees in the Semarang area, both in the Factory, Imam Bonjol Office, and the Semarang Branch Marketing Office, eagerly participated in the Fun Walk activity held to commemorate the 71st Anniversary. This event, on Saturday, June 21, 2025, was the culmination of a series of activities previously held, such as blood donation, various competitions involving all Phapros employees, and a Talk Show event held the day before with the theme "Preserving Heritage, Addressing Challenges."
The Peak Event of Phapros' 71st Anniversary was marked by various activities such as the Fun Walk, the release of catfish fry, and entertainment for employees. The Fun Walk participants were released at 07:00 by the Head of Semarang's Health Department, Mochammad Abdul Hakam. Also present were the Head of Semarang Tengah Sub-district, Head of Semarang Barat Sub-district, the Lurah of Sekayu, the Lurah of Ngemplak Simongan, and the Lurah of Bongsari, as well as the Board of Commissioners and the Board of Directors of PT Phapros Tbk, which made the event that morning feel warmer. Wearing blue-themed clothes and an '80s theme, Phaproser employees did the Fun Walk with a route of about 3 km while handing out gimmicks and some vitamins to be shared with the community along the way. This was one of the company's branding efforts, especially for the community around the Phapros factory.
While the employees participated in the Fun Walk, the Directors and invited guests released 2,106 catfish fry into the Taman Banjir Kanal Barat River as a symbol of Phapros' 71st anniversary (June 21, 1954). Catfish were chosen because they can adapt to freshwater, help reduce mosquito larvae, and improve water quality, reflecting the company's concern for the environment. The location was selected because the West Flood Canal has the potential to become a habitat for aquatic life. "We want to contribute to preserving it, with this small action, we hope to have a big impact on the environment and the community," said the Acting President Director, Ida Rahmi Kurniasih.
After completing the Fun Walk, while enjoying breakfast and snacks from local MSMEs, some participants formed the number 71 on the Phapros tennis court, followed by entertainment and performances by the winners of the various anniversary competitions. The announcement of the Best Costume competition and the distribution of door prizes, which were a form of synergy with stakeholders, ended the event that afternoon. Laughter and joy blended in a family-like atmosphere, reflecting the spirit of Phaproser employees to "Rise to Unite Goals."
Through this celebration, Phapros not only celebrated its 71st anniversary but also reaffirmed its commitment to continue growing together and contributing positively to society.
Activities at the Jakarta Head Office
The 71st Anniversary celebration of PT Phapros Tbk was held on June 20, 2025, at the Jakarta head office. This event embraced the spirit of togetherness and fitness through various interesting activities involving all Phapros personnel and the general public. One of the main activities was GABBI (Gerak Aktif Bersama Bioron) held at One Satrio, Kuningan. This event featured two fitness classes, Cardio Combat and Yoga, as an invitation to live an active and healthy lifestyle. GABBI was free for employees and affordable for the general public, and it included goodie bags with Phapros products and free meals. Phapros also demonstrated its concern for health through free health check-ups, in collaboration with Kimia Farma Diagnostika. This check-up aimed to raise awareness about the importance of maintaining health regularly.
The event area was further enlivened with a Photobooth, where participants could capture special moments, as well as an exhibition of OTC products from PT Phapros and PT Lucas Djaja. The excitement of visitors increased with the presence of a door prize raffle offering attractive prizes. At the head office, all employees received a Special Package as a form of appreciation from the company for their dedication. Additionally, a Wall of Wishes was set up, where Phaproser employees could express their hopes and inspiring messages for the future of the company.
This celebration also featured Phapros Choice, an award program recognizing inspiring figures within the workplace. This program serves as a platform for promoting a positive, collaborative work culture and mutual support among Phaproser employees. With the theme "Rising to Unite Goals," the 71st Anniversary celebration became a symbol of Phapros' commitment to continue growing, innovating, and maintaining employee welfare. The spirit of health and synergy serves as the foundation for looking toward the future as a globally competitive national pharmaceutical company.
