To
All the Members of Council,

 

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Subject: Participation in Healthcare and Medical Devices Exhibition in Kabul, Afghanistan (Stall Rentals complimentary).

 

We would like to inform members that Council received a communication from Department of Commerce Dt: 31st July 2015, inviting interest of the member companies to participate in "Healthcare and Medical Devices Exhibition" (not organized by pharmexcil) scheduled from 22-24th September 2015 in Kabul, Afghanistan.


The main focus of the exhibition will be on "Healthcare and Medical Services, Medical Equipment and Devices" from India. Members are aware India's exports of Healthcare are Medical services are growing steadily and Government of India is also taking special interest in promoting Medical Device and equipments exports across the globe.


We understand from the reports that about 80-85% of  Afghanistan's medicinal requirements are met by imports from Pakistan, Iran, India, Korea and China. India's exports of Pharmaceuticals to Afghanistan during the year 2013-14 are to the tune of Rs.287 crores growing at the rate of 17% over 2012-13.

As part of the export promotion measures/initiatives by Government of India, Department of Commerce is proposing to support (under MAI scheme) exporters of Healthcare and Medical Services, Medical Equipment and Devices, by providing an opportunity to display your products (free of cost/minimal cost) at the above exhibition. This would also be a good platform to understand MENA markets and trends for positioning your products in these regions.


With this background, we would suggest members to take advantage of this opportunity and participate in the expo. The details of the branding/stand constructions charges will be provided to the members in our next circular. We are required to inform  response of the members to Government in the meeting scheduled for next week.

 

Member companies interested in participating in the above expo are requested to send an email immediately to dgdesk@pharmexcil.com  for informing the Department accordingly.


With regards,

Dr.P.V.Appaji
