Kenya Pharmaceutical Supply

UK Pharmaceutical Supplier and Exporter to Kenya

Kenya's healthcare system is growing rapidly, with expanding hospital networks, KEMSA centralised procurement and rising demand for specialty medicines. But importing quality medicines from the UK remains a challenge. PPB registration delays, batch testing on arrival, Mombasa port congestion, cold chain failures in tropical heat and counterfeit medicine risk create daily barriers for PPB-registered importers, hospitals and NGOs. Euro Biom is an MHRA-licensed UK pharmaceutical wholesaler that trades exclusively in UK-licensed medicines, built for Kenya's realities, supplying named-patient import medicines, oncology drugs, shortage medicines and bulk pharmaceuticals across 21 therapeutic areas to buyers in Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu and beyond.

The Reality

What Kenyan Medicine Importers Need From a UK Supplier

These are real barriers facing PPB-registered importers, KEMSA procurement teams, hospitals and NGOs across Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu and Kenya's broader healthcare system right now.

PPB Registration Takes Months, Not Weeks

The Pharmacy and Poisons Board requires detailed dossiers, batch testing documentation, and proof of manufacturing compliance. Your registration can stall while you chase emails and missing certificates.

Batch Testing on Arrival Creates Unpredictable Delays

PPB requires batch-by-batch testing for certain product categories. Your shipment arrives at JKIA or Mombasa and sits in quarantine waiting for lab analysis. You don't know how long it will take. Medicines shelf-date while you wait.

Specialty Medicines Unavailable Through KEMSA

KEMSA supplies routine medicines, but some cancer treatments and specialist medicines may not be available through it. Hospitals may struggle to source them. Patients wait while you search for non-existent options.

Mombasa Port Congestion and Customs Delays

Port of Mombasa congestion is real. Combined with incomplete or unclear export documentation, your container sits for weeks. Importers face the same delays. Cold chain medicines deteriorate. You lose stock value.

Cold Chain Fails in 40-Degree East African Heat

Temperature-sensitive UK-licensed medicines need a controlled 2-8°C cold chain from the UK contract storage site through Mombasa port to Nairobi or Kisumu. Sea freight without proper temperature monitoring compromises everything. You arrive with useless stock and no proof of where it broke.

Counterfeit Medicine Risk Remains a Constant Threat

PPB fights counterfeits but importers still face risk when sourcing through intermediaries instead of direct suppliers. Importers should verify any UK supplier on the MHRA register. Every extra intermediary is another party to verify.

Questions

Questions About Importing Medicines from the UK to Kenya

Common questions from PPB-registered importers, Kenyan hospitals, NGOs and government health programmes about sourcing UK pharmaceuticals.

Can Euro Biom supply medicines to Kenya?
Yes. Euro Biom holds MHRA Wholesale Dealer Authorisation WDA(H) 59239, which permits export of pharmaceutical products to PPB-registered importers, KEMSA, hospitals, NGOs and licensed institutions in Kenya. All exports comply with UK Good Distribution Practice and are accompanied by documentation to support PPB import requirements.
How do you prepare documentation to support PPB import requirements?
Each shipment includes chain of custody records and an export invoice from us. CPP, CFS, GMP certificates, batch testing documentation and a Certificate of Analysis are passed on where the issuer makes them available. The paperwork supports the buyer's port clearance at Mombasa or JKIA.
Can you work with KEMSA procurement and government programmes?
Yes. We supply UK-licensed medicines to buyers serving government health programmes, KEMSA centralised procurement and institutional buyers across East Africa. We supply UK-side documentation to support tender submissions. Contact us with your requirements for a quote.
How is cold chain arranged for shipments to Kenya?
2-8°C medicines are shipped from our contract storage site in temperature-controlled packaging with a data logger, arranged with specialist carriers.
What's faster, air freight to JKIA or sea freight to Mombasa?
Air freight to JKIA Nairobi is faster for urgent orders; we confirm an estimate with each quote. Sea freight to Mombasa takes longer but is more cost-effective for routine supplies. Both options travel with the export documents we can supply to support your PPB requirements. We help you choose based on urgency and budget.
Can you supply oncology medicines that aren't available in Kenya?
Oncology medicines are part of the UK-licensed range we supply. Cancer treatment access in Kenya is constrained by availability. Major centres can find specialist medicines hard to source. We source UK-licensed oncology medicines through the UK licensed supply chain, and supply UK export documents to support the buyer's PPB import. Same-day response on all oncology enquiries.
How do we verify your MHRA licence?
Go to cms.mhra.gov.uk/mhra/wda/uk-wdah-59239. Search for WDA(H) 59239 or MHRA Site Reference 37434242. Our licence details are there, publicly verifiable. Organisation: Euro Biom Ltd. We were granted MHRA Wholesale Dealer Authorisation. This is not paper, not a claim. It's on the MHRA public register right now.
