X/procure® secures contract with The German Hearing Institute

X/procure®, the advertising and procurement system directly targeting South Africa's pharmacists, has secured a one year Supplier Plus contract and a three month advertising banner campaign for The German Hearing Institute and its product Audiclean.

The X/procure® platform is the leading pharmaceutical software system responsible for the delivery of electronic ordering and advertising technology to a wide segment of the South African Healthcare industry. The company's Supplier Plus module is an extension of X/procure® Pharmacy, a unique electronic wholesaler tool which allows smaller suppliers (wholesaler and distributor) direct access to the portal and commerce with over 50% of pharmacists.

Thanks to the new Supplier Plus partnership, pharmacists can connect directly with The German Hearing Institute and place orders for Audiclean straight from the manufacturer. Supplier Plus enables The German Hearing Institute to upload its product and price catalogues onto the portal, making the information available to key purchasers in more than 1500 pharmacies countrywide - a service not offered by any other player in this arena.

Managing Director Deon Lewis says “X/procure® currently has more than forty two suppliers directly networking the ordering portal, processing in excess of R400 million worth of orders monthly. Our advertisers are delighted to have the ability to tap into this previously unavailable avenue which leads them to the world of the pharmaceutical gatekeepers.”
