Supply Chain Management

Starting from the Procurement department, the supply chain management reaches the part where the distribution occurs through our subsidiaries till the very retailers who are responsible for dispensing our products to the general public. Its responsibility is thus divided into two major parts.

Procurement System

The first part of the department is concerned with procurement and it has the responsibility to plan, procure (through approved vendors) and make sure all raw materials (according to pre-approved specifications) for manufacturing our quality products are available.

The Procurement Department at Himark Laboratories
keeps a steady eye on the consistent availability of raw materials and other manufacturing supplies for its steady inflow both from the local and International markets to maintain the line of production uninterrupted. Proper inventory and cost control features developed and exercised through in-house systems have helped the management retain the production costs within appropriate levels.

Distribution System

The second part of the department is responsible to forward the stocks produced to the distribution house according to their requirement.
To meet the challenges of product distribution and to ensure the availability of the company’s products all over the country, a well-managed distribution house exists within the company. The purpose-built facility is located adjacent to the manufacturing units and has the capacity to cater to the product distribution requirements of all the companies in the group. The impressive setup has a well-established distribution network whose prime objective is to appoint distributors at the district level for the distribution of the company’s products all over the country.

Material Management & Storage

Material Management & Storage Department at Himark Laboratories, has ample space and qualified professionals for the proper storage and handling of all raw materials, packaging components, and finished goods.

Himark is a well reputed name in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry fraternity. It provides a working environment that puts the emphasis on individual responsibility, opportunity and autonomy. Himark encourages employee growth through continuous development, on-the-job training, mentoring programmes, and access to training and development. Being a pharmacist the idea is to have a state of the art, environmentally friendly plant with a skilled and motivated work force. The soul of this project will be the people that will operate this facility. Therefore the team must have the correct tools and knowledge of what they are undertaking. I wish to apply my knowledge from the pharmaceutical industry and apply it to manufacturing quality health based Pharma Products. I also wish to learn from European pharmaceutical companies about their sop’s and gimp’s, so that we truly have an international standard plant that is able to produce a variety of products that may be exported to various countries.

I have worked with Himark from its inception. One of the unique factors I have observed in my 23 year old career is that Himark serves like an institution, not just a company. They do this by developing employee skills, developing a quality focused mind set through internal and external training programs, as well as providing excellent working opportunities and a healthy environment. Being the head of production and plant operations, for me quality is everything. In my work, I live and breathe quality. This is reflected from the very first step of processing the highest quality raw material, quality processing, and quality in-process checks throughout the entire production procedure. and this effort is reflected in the efficacy and quality of the end product. I am determined to provide the very best service for the patient by taking measures to uplift the quality image of Himark products with absolutely zero market complaints.
