Certain finished products produced at Elf Sanofi plants abroad may be imported for distribution. The facility is also used for assembly of delivery system kits and promotional packages for finished pharmaceutical products. Zone procedures would exempt Sanofi Winthrop from Customs duty payments on foreign materials used in production at other company plants with subzone status for export.

In accordance with the Board's regulations, a member of the FTZ Staff has been designated examiner to investigate the application and report to the Board.
