Celsian Consulting improves public health supply chain outcomes for all our clients, using expert execution to deliver cost effective, sustainable solutions. We provide expertise in adapting private sector solutions for public health supply chains.

Annually global donors and governments in lower-and middle-income countries spend billions of dollars in the procurement of health products, which are destined to be received into public health supply chain systems via:

• Upstream supply chain - which is the distribution from manufacturer to country final destination: Other than complicated tax waiver importation procedures, the “upstream” supply chain generally functions well, with good visibility,

• Downstream supply chain - which is considered the “last mile”: less transparent, with little data confirming health products were delivered to and received by the patients who need them.

The reality is that public health commodity supply chains in Africa are some of the most vulnerable and complex systems in the world, where Public Health warehouse facilities in many developing countries were found to be inadequate and do not meet the pharma-compliant requirements for Good Storage and Distribution Practices (GSP and GDP), as defined by the WHO (World Health Organization)

      AND the problem is too complex for any one invested entity to solve:

• Logistics companies

• Donors

• Ministries

      None of these alone can move the performance needle of this industry forward in any significant  way,
