Pantheon Industries traces its origin to the late 19th century as the Katta Fishing Corp. which had gained immense value after gaining a monopoly on the global tuna market by exploiting fishing zones in the Sea of Canete. Its owner, Georgis Kattapoulos, had a "spiritual awakening" in 1899 which led to his self-publishing of "Society at the Dawn of the 20th Century" in 1901, after which he began to spend most of his wealth building, buying, or investing in businesses which he deemed visionary or "seminal for society". In 1920, Kattapoulos restructured the company by renaming it Katta Seafood and formed a separate company called Pantheon Industries for his alternative business interests. Pantheon Industries would focus on the development of drugs for the treatment of infectious diseases and is responsible for the discovery of the antibacterial effects of penicillin.

Pantheon Industries would go on to spend most of the 20th century as a leader in the pharmaceutical industry, pioneering the commercial manufacture of morphine and for a time held a monopoly on cocaine production, as well as manufacturing war essential products such as narcotics, vitamins, biocides and other chemicals.

Today, Pantheon Industries has diversified its portfolio and is still dominant in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and bio-science sectors. It is one of the world's oldest operating chemical and pharmaceutical companies, as well as one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. The current chairman of Pantheon Industries is Oiksi Iivostner, who was appointed in 2021 after the ousting of the former chairman Bob Dole.
