Located in Addis Ababa, EPSA’s Head Office coordinates the activities of the nineteen branches and the seven clusters they are grouped into. Acting as the epicentre of pharmaceutical affairs in the country, the head office procures and distributes pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, medical equipment and laboratory reagents from local and international manufacturers to its nineteen hubs that in turn reach over 4,000 medical facilities located in all corners of the country. The Head Office also manages contracts with various local and international companies.
Cognizant of the numerous factors that have changed since the establishment of the Agency near the onset of the new millennium, the Head Office has restructured itself to fit better with the current reality in the country. With the huge rise in the country’s population and the subsequent surge in the demand for pharmaceuticals, the Head Office has equipped itself with twenty directorates.
