Founded in 1945, Alcon Laboratories, Inc. traces its roots back to two pharmacists, Robert Alexander and William Conner, who opened a small pharmacy in Fort Worth, Texas, and combined the first syllables of their last names to create the name Alcon.
Majority owned by Nestlé S.A. and incorporated in Hünenberg, Switzerland with U.S. operations based in Fort Worth, Texas, our team of over 15,000 dedicated employees worldwide develops, manufactures, and distributes hundreds of eye care products in more than 180 countries. This seasoned and diverse group of people, who encircle the globe, are united by a common mission: to make Alcon the most trusted eye care company worldwide and the first choice of eye care professionals and their patients.
In March 2002, Alcon conducted a partial initial public offering (IPO) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Nestlé still owns approximately 75 percent of the company.
Alcon's core business is centered on three key divisions – Surgical, Pharmaceutical and Consumer Vision Care. As of 2008, sales reached US$6.3 billion.
We conduct our business from Alcon offices located in 75 countries around the world in regions including Canada and the Far East; Europe, Middle East and Africa; Latin America and the Caribbean; and the United States.

The dedication and commitment is contagious – often when people arrive, they see no reason to leave. Instead, they see several reasons to stay. Alcon employees are constantly being challenged and rewarded for excellence. It's easy to be proud of who we are and what we do. More importantly, it's easy to be proud of how we do it. We don't just enhance, preserve and restore vision; we foster an Alcon family of nearly 15,000, around the world who dedicate themselves to this same mission.

Corporate Responsibility
Community & Humanitarian Involvement
We recognize we offer what many people need, whether or not they can afford it or even know it exists. As a result, a significant part of our culture revolves around our responsibility to the community and to humanity as a whole. Many of our charitable endeavors involve services for, and support of, the communities in which we operate and live. We also offer a patient assistance program to assist those in need of our therapies but who lack the resources to pay for them.
In 2008 our Medical Missions Program donated US$55 million in cash and products to charitable activities, including patient access assistance programs for low income patients and 1,200 medical missions in more than 90 countries that restore vision to those without access to eye care services. As part of these missions, we partner with physicians and humanitarian organizations such as the ORBIS "Saving Sight Worldwide" Program and Mercy Ships. Additionally, we established The Alcon Foundation, Inc. to support the philanthropic interests of Alcon that include research efforts and organizations in the field of eye care with special consideration given to those programs that advance the education and skill levels of eye care professionals. The Foundation also supports leadership programs, education and the arts in the communities in which we operate.
