Executive Summary

From penicillin to innovative medicines across oncology, internal medicine, immunology
and inflammation, hospital medicines and rare disease, the Pfizer Sandwich site plays
an important role in researching and developing new breakthrough medical advances.
Pfizer commissioned Public First to look in depth at the economic and social impact of its
Sandwich site across the UK. In order to do this, we:

o Used financial data provided by Pfizer to model the national and local economic impact of its operations in Sandwich.
o Conducted an anonymous staff survey, with responses from 410 (54%) of the 754 employees working at the site.
o Held 18 in-depth interviews across all levels of the organisation at the site and with other senior leaders in the UK.
o Our analysis has been drawn from existing academic assessments in areas such as added life expectancy from new drug discoveries.
o Full methodology is available in the appendix, and while Pfizer commissioned this work and provided data as an input, all estimates are the work of Public First.
