Purpose of investment

  • There are agreements with the insurers to provide medical services and medicines delivery
  • To increase the number of doctors’ calls and deliveries of the medicines there is a necessity to keep sufficient stock of the medicine during the month –till the insurers pay their bills
  • Besides there is a number of pre-agreed point of sales in the medical enterprises to be opened. For that extra stock is needed
  • The investment will go to increase the stock for the deliveries (70%) and for the opening of the new points of sales (30%)

The benefits of business expansion

  • Business expansion does not add extra fixed costs – all sales are direct sales costs. Thus the margin increases
  • Additional financing allow to shift credit terms with the distributors to prepayment and get additional discount
  • With the growth of point of sales there is an opportunity to sign marketing agreements with the producers to get additional bonuses
