Improving health and
wellbeing in East Africa
We Are Here to Provide You Awesome Service Always
We work closely with our suppliers to develop and provide training programmes for many of our customers.
Surgipharm works on ad-hoc projects with various partners from the Ugandan Ministry of Health, NGOs, institutions, research organisations and private companies.
A sizeable part of Surgipharm's business involves surgical equipment and diagnostic machinery, most of which is relatively new to the Ugandan.
Part of our intuitional focus means that we consider tenders as a core business activity. Ability to supply a broad range of products and services at competitive prices.
We have All Major Values
Surgipharm's core mission has always been to improve upon the lives of Ugandans through better accessibility of health care products and offering added value services. This is embodied in the way we conduct our day to day business, as well as in the many charitable activities and programmes that Surgipharm takes part in every year.
By devoting our time, our talent and our resources to this aim, whether in the form of a private sector initiative or a charitable gift, we are able to contribute to the development of Uganda's internal capacity and help lay the foundation for a healthier future.
From a purely charitable standpoint, Surgipharm actively donates products and training, and often provides subsidised medicines, supplies and logistics to several community organisations and government programmes.
From a business standpoint, we seek to involve ourselves in as many socially responsible private sector initiatives as possible. It is our belief that through such initiatives Surgipharm can make the greatest impact. This means that we are regularly partnering with other private, for profit suppliers, NGOs and government institutions.
