WHO-GMP sourced

Overview

Exporting pharmaceuticals from India to Africa

RND Industries is an Indian pharmaceutical merchant exporter supplying finished formulations — tablets, capsules, syrups, drops, sachets — and surgical disposables to importers, distributors and tender agents across Africa. We source from WHO-GMP certified manufacturing sites, prepare the export documentation, and support your national registration with CTD dossiers and Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (CPP) documentation. We do not manufacture and we are not the marketing authorisation holder — the registration stays yours, and we supply the documentation behind it.
