Malawi Supply Chain Healthcare Imperial Health Sciences
Imperial Health Sciences managing director Dr Iain Barton highlights the reasons for the development of a new healthcare supply chain in Malawi:
"In most countries in sub-Saharan Africa, essential medicines and vaccines are procured and distributed by the Ministry of Health or a parastatal agency closely linked to the Ministry. The typical model is that the manufacturers ship the medicines to the Central Medical Stores, which, using a government owned fleet, distributes in bulk to district or regional warehouses. These in turn distribute supplies to hospitals, clinics and primary healthcare centres."
