Regulatory Strategy & Planning

Your product works. Your market opportunity is clear. The gap is regulatory—and in Africa it's a real one. Most manufacturers approach each country as a separate filing project. We design registration pathways that map dependencies across jurisdictions, eliminate redundant work, and get you to commercial launch months earlier than competitors.

We assess your product against PPB, SAHPRA, NAFDAC, and Ghana FDA requirements and identify the fastest, lowest-risk route to authorization. That might mean using an EAC joint assessment to cover three countries at once. It might mean applying for NAFDAC recognition of another country's approval. It might mean staging your launch—launching in Kenya first, then using that approval as leverage in South Africa and Nigeria.

Concrete outcome: A mid-sized biotech company planned five PPB registrations. We restructured their strategy to use EAC joint assessment for two products, saving three months and reducing their PPB statutory fee load by 40%. The first product now reaches market in 14 months instead of 22.

The work includes competitive landscape analysis, market entry timeline planning, regulatory risk assessment, and detailed guidance on dossier preparation and submission sequencing. We coordinate directly with regulators when needed—responses to PPB technical queries, clarity on NAFDAC expectations, follow-up submissions to address SAHPRA concerns.

Best for: Manufacturers with new products entering African markets for the first time, companies expanding regionally, and businesses that need to understand how regulatory approvals in one country can accelerate entry into others.
