• Be a major player in providing Quality and
Affordable Healthcare Products to both Local

Government Agencies, Faith Based
Organizations
• Merger with Strides Shasun has had an
impact towards improving our strength in Anti-
Malaria, Anti - Retroviral and TB drugs.
• Accessibility and availability is always better
when the product is manufactured nearer the
need
Being a Small WHO PQ African
Manufacturer• Small Volume products can be easily done
which would not be feasible for a Large
Manufacturer.
• Cost of manufacturing would be higher than
Large Manufacturers
• Levies and Duties applicable to African
Manufacturers as opposed to Indian and
Chinese Manufacturers (Export incentives).
• Availability of talent, People Cost, energy
Costs relatively higher.
• Donor Community to assist in Building
Capacity and creation of Employment as part
of the Sustainable Development Goals (teach
us how to Fish do not feed us with the Fish).
