=== How did the idea of the company come about? === The inception of the company's concept can be traced back to a pivotal moment when two visionary minds, Charles Pfizer and Charles Erhart, converged their expertise. In 1849, they established Pfizer, a pharmaceutical colossus with an enduring legacy. The seeds of this transformative venture germinated from the synthesis of two diverse backgrounds: Charles Pfizer, a chemist of remarkable acumen, and his cousin Charles Erhart, an adept confectioner. It was in their shared recognition of an uncharted opportunity that the idea for the company began to crystallize. Harnessing Pfizer's profound understanding of chemistry and Erhart's knack for culinary craftsmanship, they perceived a horizon where the fusion of these disciplines could engender chemicals of profound medical import. This prescient insight led to the pioneering notion of manufacturing and marketing compounds for medical applications. The inaugural strides were marked by the production and distribution of santonin, a potent antiparasitic medication. This initial foray swiftly unfurled into a tapestry of diversified pharmaceutical offerings. Their operations rapidly extended beyond santonin, encompassing an array of innovative pharmaceutical products that began to reshape the healthcare landscape. In this convergence of scientific expertise and entrepreneurial spirit, Pfizer sprang forth. The pioneering journey embarked upon by Charles Pfizer and Charles Erhart reverberates as a testament to the serendipitous union of distinct talents, birthing a pharmaceutical titan that would leave an indelible mark on the annals of medicine and human well-being.
