To

All the Members of Council,

Dear Sir / Madam

At the outset, we would like to thank you once again for the overwhelming support to IPHEX an emerging flagship event of Pharmexcil to promote exports of pharmaceuticals and health care sector related products and services.

The last two editions in Mumbai have been highly successful and we have been able to position Brand India Pharma as Responsible healthcare. Embassies and Missions of India abroad are taking all efforts to promote IPHEX and suggest good business prospects.

In sync with our sustained efforts, an initiative is being taken to make IPHEX a global event and organizing its editions outside India as well.

As a step forward in the direction, we are pleased to announce the first edition of IPHEX-Africa being organized in Lagos in Nigeria.

It will be an exclusive exhibition for Indian exhibitors who will have an opportunity to generate immense business opportunities in Nigeria and other African nations. Members are kindly aware that Nigeria has huge potential as evident from following statistics:

Nigeria, during the year 2013-14 is the largest Export Destination of India having the export growth rate of 12.72 % as per DGCIS stats.  Exports of bulk drugs and formulations to Nigeria are as follows:
