Sites
Two Sites, One Standard of Excellence
Jubilant HollisterStier operates two manufacturing facilities: one in Spokane, Washington, and one in Montréal, Quebec. We’ve designed both sites for quality pharmaceutical production that delivers precision, flexibility, and regulatory excellence. Operating two North American manufacturing sites also allows us to protect your patient supply with a built-in redundancy plan for emergencies. Together, our sites provide scalable solutions across a wide range of dosage forms to manufacturer drug products for patients around the world.
Spokane, Washington
Sterile Fill-Finish & Lyophilization Expertise
Our high-capacity Spokane site focuses on sterile fill-finish and lyophilization for both clinical and commercial-scale projects. With advanced isolator technology, automated inspection systems, and a strong FDA inspection history, Spokane is built to handle complex formulations and high-volume production efficiently. JHS opened its third line in February 2024, marking the completion of the first half of our state-of-the-art expansion project.
Spokane Expansion
Our ongoing facility expansion featuring two high-speed, fully integrated sterile fill-finish lines with isolator technology, additional lyophilizers, and cold storage doubles our total capacity and addresses your needs as a pharma innovator or public health organization operating today. The expansion has already allowed us to create hundreds of new jobs, and we estimate having created about 400 new positions in Spokane by the end of 2026. A portion of the $300 million USD raised for the expansion project came from an active partnership with the US government to support a national response to future public health emergencies.
We are finalizing our fourth high-speed injectable-liquid filling line, which will open in 2026. The 160,000 sq. ft. expansion and the addition of larger lyophilizers will further increase our capacity. The line 4 expansion also includes additional operational space with a build-out, loading docks, ultra-cold storage and temperature-controlled capabilities, a high-speed packaging line, environmental monitoring, stability space, and a new employee services area. Once line 4 is live, JHS will be able to produce approximately 60 million vials and service over 300 million patients a year worldwide.
Montréal, Quebec
Ophthalmic & Small-Scale Sterile Manufacturing
At our Montréal site, we specialize in providing tailored solutions for ophthalmic products as well as smaller and mid-size batch projects. By choosing a partner with specialized ophthalmic experience and full packaging capabilities, your project receives the attention to detail and full-service support it needs. Our sterile filling line and lyophilization capabilities ensure the same level of quality for all sterile fill-finish drug products.
Montréal Expansion
We announced an investment of $114 million USD to expand Canadian operations. At completion, the expansion aims to triple its Montréal annual capacity from 20 million to 70 million injectables in addition to its current ophthalmic capabilities. The Canadian government and Health Canada are supporting the project through partially repayable loans and the Strategic Innovation Fund (SIF). Additionally, we are undergoing validation for a 200-bottle-per-minute filling line that can handle both traditional three-piece and preservative-free bottles that is on track to open by early 2026.
