From JGL's history
The success story of JGL gained momentum after leaving the "Jadran" Pharmacy, immediately after the breakup of Yugoslavia and with the start of production of generic drugs in the category of essential drugs. These were small-batch drugs that were not of interest to the large pharmaceutical industry because they were not cost-effective.
