The rapid expansion of Indian healthcare firms in Africa has not been without problems.
Africure Pharmaceuticals, has gone one step further than Goodstrain, by manufacturing pharmaceuticals in Africa.
"Africa over the years has been dependent on imports of medication from Europe, India, and China, which has resulted in the draining of precious foreign exchange, non-creation of job opportunities, and suffering the vagaries of supply and demand," says Sinhue Noronha, founder and chief executive of Africure Pharmaceuticals.
"All of our plants and distribution setups are engaged primarily to provide an uninterrupted supply of essential medicines."Mr Noronha says that Indian firms have a head start over rivals from elsewhere in the world.
