As a result of constant efforts for socially responsible management, Pharmachem has so far won numerous awards and acknowledgments for social responsibility. In 2007, Pharmachem won its first prize for social responsibility (CSR) for the project "Establishment of Association for environmental consultancy within the Economic Chamber of Macedonia". We have won the award for selfless contribution in the field of environmental protection by the German government. The following year 2008, Pharmachem again wins CSR award in the category: relationship with suppliers / customers for the project "Training of employees in the State Agency for Food and other stakeholders in accordance with the requirements of the HACCP system." At the same time, in 2008. Pharmachem receives a prize from the City of Skopje as the most environmentally friendly company and an award from the Chamber of Commerce of the Republic of Macedonia, the NGO Transparency-Zero corruption and Economic Chamber of North-West Macedonia for a company with good corporate governance.
In the years to follow, the CSR concept in Pharmachem continues to develop at an accelerated pace which can be seen from the two first national awards won in 2009 from the Ministry of Economy and the National Coordination Body for CSR, as well as two acknowledgments. The first awards were received in the following categories: relations with employees with the project "Strengthening capacities for teamwork and building loyalty to the company" and relations with consumers/suppliers for the project "Workshop for white brined cheese" and acknowledgments in the categories: environmental protection and improvement with the project "Waste Management Plan for the Municipality of Gjorce Petrov" and contribution to the community for the project "Establishment of Environmental Laboratory."
According to the Minister for Economy, Mr. Fatmir Besimi, this award is a way to verify the successful examples in the application of the concept of corporate social responsibility in the Republic of Macedonia, with which companies in their business operations and in their interaction with stakeholders on a voluntary basis, integrate social care and concern for environmental protection. Therefore, it is becoming an increasingly important concept in the world and in the EU and it is associated with sustainable development, promotion of competitiveness, economic growth and job creation.
In 2010, Pharmachem continues with the trend of winning awards for CSR in the category of small and medium size companies and wins the award in the category of ethical management for the project "Transparent work of the management and involving employees in the decision making process in the company".
