Transatlantic Supply Chain Launch

F.L.I.G.H.T. has been working diligently to create a supply line that provides access to essential medications and supplies to improve health outcomes. Together with McDan Shipping Company Ltd. and Global Summit for Health, Environment, Agriculture, and Development (GS-HEAD), F.L.I.G.H.T. successfully conducted a supply drop to Freetown, Sierra Leone. The consignment offers access to 43,200 topiramate capsules, 134,400 nifedipine tablets, 15,000 telmisartan tablets, and 30,000 mL of liquid Tylenol (pediatric). These medications will be distributed nationwide, courtesy of GS-HEAD and their in-country partners (Wholesale Acquisition Cost: ~$1.6 million). Many thanks to MAP International and their donors for the contribution to enhancing health care internationally.
