- Authorisation letters and regulatory dossiers
- Private-label packaging
- Credit terms after the first orders
Starting product mix
Begin with fast-moving consumables (gloves, sutures, dressings, IV sets) to build cash flow, then add instruments and equipment.
Exclusivity and growth
We offer city or country exclusivity in Uganda against agreed annual volumes.
What we look for in a Uganda partner
