Distribution

Africa ships its orders by airfreight from Johannesburg where we have access to secure, in-bond warehousing and communications world-wide. Our goal is to keep our customers appropriately stocked at all times.

AMFA's goal goes beyond simply providing essential generic medicines at an affordable price.  While AMFA is constantly working to source medicines at a lower cost, we do not want to compete for business solely on a price basis.

We feel the greater need is to provide excellent customer service through "Just-In-Time" (JIT) ordering and delivery resulting in streamlined inventory management and greatly reduced operating costs for our customers.  In addition to our JIT objectives, we are also working towards partnering with other African organizations to implement a continent-wide, Internet-based communications system.

AMFA's distribution system covers the whole of Africa.  By working with both commercial carriers, such as DHL, InterAir and Sizarail, and private distribution partners, like MAF and AIM-AIR, AMFA ensures timely and secure product delivery at a reasonable cost.
