The Story of India's largest Vaccine maker

When Cyrus Poonawalla Began his career

It was 1966, Indian businessman Cyrus Poonawalla, who was born into a family of horse breeders, wanted to diversify the family business. Cyrus Poonawalla owned one of the leading stud farm in India and had decades old ties with horse racing. Yet he saw no future in his family business he wanted his own unique and creative business that is last long, and gave his success that he want from the beginning.

At the time, retired horses of the farm were sent to a government owned institute for vaccine production. But that time one question came in his mind "how did horses have anything to do with vaccines?"

It turns out a horse's serum is an integral component in vaccines for a few diseases, including tetanus. The word 'Serum', means a clear liquid derived after separating blood.

Naturally, when Cyrus Poonawalla realized the potential market for the vaccine, he set out to creat a manufacturing hub of his own company. Cyrus Poonawalla began extracting horse serum and producing vaccines on a large quantities. And with small investment of $12,000 he launched the Serum institute of India (SII)
