About Simple Pharma
Simple Pharma's purpose is to be the best home for proven pharma products.
The pharma industry overspends on pharma operations by €100bn per year, putting the success of their pharma products at risk and creating inefficiencies in the healthcare system.
Simple Pharma is building the first end-to-end distribution and compliance services company for pharma product owners. Our Distribute and Comply services allow intellectual property owners to focus on their products without needing to build or maintain pharma backbone capabilities. We pick up from manufacturers and deliver to wholesalers and pharmacies, taking care of everything else in between to keep products in supply. We hold marketing authorisations and comply with all regulatory requirements to maintain the highest possible standard of quality and patient safety. And we do... this across Europe with the aspiration to expand globally.
Founded in 2019, we have scaled our operations to manage close to 100,000 units per month and 60 marketing authorisations across 25 countries. Our diverse and combined team has more than 30 people across 7 countries, speaking more than 10 languages. We are EBITDA profitable, growing, and are participating in a market that is ripe for new thinking.
At Simple Pharma, our core values— Knowledge and Transparency, Agency, First Principle Thinking & Humility—guie our actions every day. They shape our daily operations and interactions. Whether it's empowering a colleague with the right information, proactively addressing challenges, or embracing feedback, we live these values every day to ensure that Simple Pharma is a place where innovation thrives, and excellence is the norm.
