Merck’s historical roots lie in Darmstadt, where Friedrich Jacob Merck acquired the Engel-Apotheke (pharmacy) in 1668. In 1827, Heinrich Emanuel Merck started the industrial production of alkaloids, botanical extracts and other chemicals in Darmstadt. Today, about 38,000 Merck employees in 67 countries ensure innovations in the areas pharma, chemicals and life-science. Four divisions are conducting business: Merck Serono, Consumer Health, Performance Materials and Merck Millipore. In 2016, the Merck group generated total revenues of approx. 15 billion Euro.
