PHARMA FRANCHISE ON MONOPOLY BASIS

Pharma Franchise involves monopoly rights which are given to franchisee by the pharmaceutical company. Pharma Franchise on monopoly basis is key to this business. Pharma Franchise business cannot be run effectively without monopoly rights. Monopoly rights give freedom to its franchisee to expand his business in the designated area, without the apprehensions of infiltration or interference by any co-franchisee. By signing few papers the PCD Pharma company and the franchisee mutually agree to support each other.

Steps in the Pharma franchise on monopoly basis business:

1. Manufacturing of Pharmaceutical Products: First of all, Pharma products are manufactured in Manufacturing Units which are certified with WHO-GMP, ISO 9001: 2008, ISO and / or 14001:2004 certificates. The sourcing of APIs and Expedients, manufacturing the products according to relevant guidelines (IP/ BP/ JP/ USP), QC and retention of samples during the life-time of that products are all responsibilities of the manufacturing plant. There are whole set of detailed guidelines which are followed for each of these steps.

Type of packing depends upon the guidelines contained in the relevant Pharmacopeia(s) The examples of strip packaging for tablets are blister/ Alu-alu/ Poly-strip pack. If Packaging is presentable and attractive, then promotion can be done easily, which is also very important in Pharma Franchise business. Sometimes some compromise on packaging is done to make the products affordable (provided guidelines allow so) . But this compromise should be limited only to Packaging and not to manufacturing.
