Chameleon Pharma Consulting comments: During the last year Polfarma has already acquired a big share in a leading pharmaceutical factory in Kazakhstan. But it is difficult for the company to achieve substantial growth in Poland. With this idea Polfarma seems to follow a strategy to move east in order to grow further. We also observe that these are mostly the CEE companies, which enter growing countries like Kazakhstan. Unfortunately, Pharma Players from western markets often use their existing Russian or Ukrainian partner to handle countries like Kazakhstan. We, Chameleon Pharma, always recommend to have a single good performing partner in Kazakhstan and to handle this interesting market directly.
Chameleon Pharma Consulting is the healthcare and Pharma consulting expert for the CIS and Eastern European markets. Except for acquisition of targets and due diligence consulting, a part of the major business of Chameleon Pharma Consulting is the search for dynamic and highly-productive Healthcare sale and marketing partners on the CEE & GUS markets.
