Pharmaceuticals

Ecopia Group, through its newly formed pharmaceutical division, in partnership with Trimedica and led by Yodahe Mekonnen, is actively working to bring European pharmaceutical companies to the Ethiopian market. Furthermore, we have a longstanding history of lobbying for a framework to unlock indigenous knowledge on herbal medicinal plants.

Project Kristos Samra

Project Kristos Samra is poised to transform Ethiopia’s fragmented pharmaceutical market—characterized by over 3,000 retail pharmacies and 4,400 drug shops—with a lack of centralized inventory tracking and significant price variability. With approximately 85% of pharmaceuticals being imported, the market is ripe for digital integration to reduce inefficiencies, streamline supply chains, and enhance consumer information.
