mPharma

mPharma is a pharmacy and medicine supply-chain technology company founded in 2013 in Accra, Ghana, addressing fragmented drug procurement and unreliable stock among community pharmacies across the continent. The company now operates across nine African countries, including Nigeria, Kenya, Zambia and Rwanda, working with a network of more than 100 partner pharmacies.

Its Bloom platform digitises inventory, procurement and point-of-sale operations for pharmacies, while its vendor-managed-inventory model supplies medicines to partner outlets on consignment to reduce upfront capital needs. The mutti membership program layers affordable primary-care and chronic-disease support on top of the pharmacy network. mPharma reports reaching over 2 million patients and working with more than 1,000 ecosystem partners, including manufacturers and distributors.
