LifeBank, the innovative business founded by Temie Giwa-Tubosun in Nigeria that uses data, technology, and smart logistics to improve the discoverability, delivery, affordability, and safety of essential medical products like blood and oxygen for health systems across Africa in order to save lives, has announced its first expansion outside Nigeria. The company’s next city of operations is Nairobi in Kenya as it strives to continue saving more lives while strengthening the supply chain engine for health systems across Africa.
Since its inception, LifeBank has saved the lives of over 10,000 people by moving 25,000+ critical products to 550 hospitals. The company’s in-house technology, data and multimodal distribution platform have enabled it to reach the very last mile. LifeBank will continue to stay true to its mission of ending preventable deaths by helping hospitals in Kenya discover these products and delivering them in the right condition and on time.
Speaking about the work of LifeBank, founder Temie Giwa-Tubosun, says:
“As LifeBank, we will work to make access to critical supplies seamless and affordable. Most importantly, we are committed to delivering these lifesaving products to busy healthcare providers WHENEVER and WHEREVER they are needed.”
What makes this strategic move into a new country so important is that it helps deliver on LifeBank’s goal of hoping to continue to save more lives while strengthening the supply chain engine for health systems across Africa. The aspiration for this latest expansion is to deliver critical medical supplies to the very last mile and save more lives in Kenya.
