Dublin, Oct. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Biosimilar Contract Manufacturing Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Source (Mammalian, Non-mammalian), Therapeutic Area (Oncology, Blood Disorders), Service, and Region with Growth Forecasts, 2025-2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global biosimilar contract manufacturing market size was estimated at USD 8.91 Billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 25.19 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 13.87% from 2025 to 2033. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune disorders is driving demand for affordable biologics.



Biosimilars offer cost-effective alternatives to expensive branded biologics, making them highly suitable for healthcare systems and patients. Pharmaceutical companies are increasingly outsourcing biosimilar production to contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) to reduce operational costs, ensure regulatory compliance, and accelerate time-to-market. This growing demand and patent expirations of blockbuster biologics fuel strong market expansion for contract manufacturing services, enabling drug developers to focus on innovation while leveraging CMOs' expertise in large-scale, efficient biosimilar production.

In addition, expiration of patents for blockbuster biologics such as monoclonal antibodies, insulin analogs, and growth factors has opened significant opportunities for biosimilar manufacturers. With billions of dollars in biologics revenue at stake, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly racing to develop biosimilars to capture market share. However, due to high production complexity, many companies rely on contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) with specialized expertise in biologics development, scale-up, and regulatory compliance. This trend accelerates outsourcing partnerships, enabling faster biosimilar launches while reducing risks and operational costs, thereby driving market growth.

Furthermore, contract manufacturing organizations are heavily investing in advanced biomanufacturing technologies, including single-use systems, high-capacity bioreactors, and continuous processing, to meet the rising demand for biosimilars. These technological advancements enhance efficiency, flexibility, and scalability, attracting pharmaceutical companies to partner with CMOs. In addition, CMOs are expanding global facilities to comply with regional regulatory standards, supporting multinational drug launches. Such expansions enable biosimilar developers to overcome infrastructure limitations, reduce upfront investment costs, and accelerate commercialization timelines. The increasing sophistication and global footprint of CMOs make them indispensable partners, propelling market growth.

Besides these, supportive regulatory environments in key markets such as the U.S., Europe, and emerging economies are fostering the adoption of biosimilars. Regulatory agencies such as the U.S. FDA and EMA have established streamlined approval pathways, ensuring safety and efficacy while expediting market entry. These frameworks encourage investment in biosimilar development, driving demand for high-quality manufacturing partners. Contract manufacturing organizations benefit from their expertise in adhering to stringent regulatory standards, providing companies with compliance assurance and global market access. As regulatory clarity improves worldwide, the reliance on CMOs for biosimilar production is expected to intensify, boosting market growth further.
