For nearly five decades, we have impacted people around the world with our products and our services. As one of the world's largest pharmaceutical wholesalers, we work to provide access to safe healthcare for everyone. Every year more than 100 million people worldwide are treated with medicine from Missionpharma.

We fundamentally believe that access to safe and affordable treatment is a human right, why our core focus is to provide quality medicine and medical devices to vulnerable communities all over the world.

We are determined to make a positive impact on the lives of millions of people globally and to prove our purpose of being on a mission for better health. 

In 2022 Missionpharma delivered 30,000 cbm of healthcare products to patients worldwide. This corresponds to 1,200 containers per year or more than 3 containers per day. 

Hospital ships that transform lives
In 2023 Missionpharma partnered up with the international humanitarian organisation, Mercy Ships, which operates two hospital ships that deliver free surgical operations to the poorest people in Africa.

For many people in low-income countries, surgery is simply not an option, either because it doesn’t exist or it is inaccessible. Onboard the two floating hospital ships, Mercy Ships provides safe surgery for free, transforming thousands of lives in every country it visits.

Mercy Ships operates two large non-governmental hospital ships, the Africa Mercy and the Global Mercy. The ships bring necessary medical care, surgeries and capacity building to Africa and offer in total 12 operating theatres and nearly 300 patient beds.

Missionpharma’s donation to Mercy Ships in financial year 2022/23 corresponds to 32 life-changing operations on board the ships.

Missionpharma has always been powered by strong values and a commitment to make a difference. We believe that our purpose and our values tie us together as a company and drive us to keep aiming for making an impact.

From time to time we revisit the wording of our own purpose to make sure that we communicate the driving forces of our company in a relevant manner.

Therefore, we have phrased a new statement to explain our reason for being as a company. We call it: On a mission for better health.
