Pharmaceutical Manufacturer in India for Zambian Importers
Your brand, made at our own WHO-GMP plant in Panchkula, with the ZAMRA registration held in your name
Local production meets only an estimated 10 to 15 per cent of Zambia's demand for medicines; 123 of 8,154 registered medicines were made locally as of June 2022. The importers who do well are the ones whose Indian source answers ZAMRA’s questions, stands up to a site inspection and ships the same quality on the tenth order as on the first. That is the job we do.
- Our own plant, not a trading house. One WHO-GMP site for tablets, capsules and oral liquids, with GLP laboratories in the next block. ZAMRA queries are answered by the people who made the batch.
- Artwork and foil printed in-house. Your blister foil and cartons are printed on our own rotogravure unit, so a ZAMRA label change or a re-order never waits on a converter.
- One container, your whole range. Tablets, capsules, oral liquids and creams from one gate, with 39 products already approved for export to USP and BP monographs.

Why Zambian importers work with Vibcare Healthcare
What is different when the manufacturer owns the plant
ZAMRA-ready from the site
Site certificates, product specifications, batch records, certificates of analysis and stability data come from one quality unit, on ZAMRA’s checklist, in the order the assessor asks for them. The plant is open to ZAMRA inspection by appointment.
Documentation that survives an audit
Every batch ships with its certificate of analysis and batch manufacturing record. Written specifications, validated methods and ICH stability data from our own chambers, run at the conditions Zambia’s climatic zone requires.
Your brand, your artwork, our press
English packs with the ZAMRA registration number, batch and expiry printed to your approved artwork; blister and strip foil printed inside the plant on a 4-colour rotogravure unit. Label changes stay on our schedule.
A range, not a product
Anti-infectives, cardiovascular, gastro-intestinal, pain and anti-allergic products from the export list, plus anything from 750-plus approved formulations added against your order, consolidated into one consignment to Lusaka.
From Panchkula to Dar es Salaam
Road to Nhava Sheva, sea across the Indian Ocean; air freight to Kenneth Kaunda International Airport, Lusaka

Questions Zambian importers ask
Before you send a requirement
Who applies to ZAMRA, you or us?
You do. A foreign marketing-authorisation holder must appoint a Local Responsible Person in Zambia, by letter of appointment and power of attorney, to submit applications and receive decisions. We give you a notarised power of attorney, every manufacturer's document on ZAMRA's checklist, samples for laboratory analysis and answers to assessor queries from the site.
Will ZAMRA inspect your plant?
Regulators may inspect foreign manufacturing sites as part of registration. Ours is a WHO-GMP certified plant commissioned in 2023, with GLP laboratories on site, and it is open to ZAMRA and to you by appointment.
How long until my product is registered and shipped?
A government regulatory impact assessment cites 12 to 18 months for most application categories. Registration validity: 5 years. The manufacturing lead time for your first consignment comes with the proposal, in writing.
Which language do you print the packs in?
English, to the artwork you approve, with blister and strip foil printed inside our plant. Dossier documents are supplied in the format ZAMRA uses: CTD (ICH M4 format), in English.
What is the minimum order?
It follows the batch size of each product. Because tablets, capsules and oral liquids come from one site, a first consignment is usually consolidated across products rather than filled with one.
Which products can you supply straight away?
39 products already approved for export to USP and BP monographs, across anti-infectives, cardiovascular, gastro-intestinal, pain and anti-allergic classes. Anything else on our 750-plus approved formulations is added to the export list against your order.
