We also help our customers (chain pharmacies, personal care stores, hospitals, clinics) to grow their business in new and existing markets by providing access to high-quality products, staff training and customer services, like consignment inventory management.

For companies wishing to license out products in the markets, we are a proven partner through stand-alone entities such as Medinova and Favorex brand-owning businesses based in Asia Pacific and Switzerland.
