INDUSTRIAL OVERVIEW/ OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

 

 

The pharmaceutical industry is very important to the economy of every country. Pharmaceuticals, especially drugs, are so priceless that no nation can survive without them and every serious-minded government pays great attention to drugs. Drugs are so important that the World Health organization (WHO) recommends a National Drug Policy for every country. Nigeria’s pharmaceutical market is large, considering the size of the population growth it is likely to increase speedily in the coming years, because the country has a huge potential. Aside from being Africa’s most populous nation, there is an entrepreneurial ethic in the country, which could help the pharmaceutical sector develop rapidly.

Nevertheless, the national health system still suffers from low levels of funding and total per capita healthcare expenditure is well below US$10.

 

Arguably, the key problem facing the sector is the scourge of counterfeit drugs, which account for approximately half of all drug sales in the country. Unsafe medicines kill thousands of people each year, also undermine the local manufacturing sector, and deter multinationals. However, the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) is fighting to stem the illicit trade, conducting 15, 697 raids between 2001 and 2006. Although this had had an impact, the trade continues unabated, due to high demand for affordable treatments. Nonetheless, the activities of NAFDAC have greatly encouraged more indigenous players in this sector.

 

Despite the apparent growth in the number of indigenous players in the industry, there remains the fact that no company has set up a basic active raw material manufacturing plant in Nigeria, not even for Paracetamol or Aspirin. The pharmaceutical industry is greatly challenged in this regard.

The amendment of the Essential Drug List (EDL) decree restricting the application only to public health institutions was the first tonic to the industry. With the amendment to this decree, companies were able to expand their product base, resuscitate abandoned product lines, and increase their volume, turnover and profit margins. Industries were able to source their raw materials and equipment, free from encumbrances. This was of great benefit.

The abolition of Value Added Tax (VAT) on pharmaceutical raw materials, coupled with the reduction of tariff on raw materials and equipment by the Nigerian government have greatly encouraged the pharmaceutical industry.

NAFDAC’s differential tariff and its war against fake drugs are now creating a boom for the pharmaceutical industry. Presently, there are eighty-six (86) local pharmaceutical manufacturing companies producing only about 30% of Nigeria’s drug need.
