Impact: How does it Work

Example: Walk us through a specific example(s) of how this solution makes a difference; include its primary activities.

We will specialize in offering a variety of generic drugs, medicines and sanitary pads, counseling, psychotherapy and psycho social support services. These are the services that many social enterprise and pharmacy centres as well as hospital have found it difficult to offer.We are aware that we cannot compete on price only. That is why we prefer to focus on social impacts, assessing customer expectations, and demands and will decide which expectations we can reasonably meet, then make sure to constantly exceed them wholeheartedly. Thus, we will be able to maintain and increase the level of customer satisfaction, as a strong foundation for future growth.

Impact: What is the impact of the work to date? Also describe the projected future impact for the coming years.

We are working on market research and business strategy,Our main concern will be to have a big positive impact and to focus on delivering the right services to those who needs it alongside solving human problem. The organization's profitability will be majorly measured by its positive impacts, profitability ratios are excellent services, and will gradually increase over the next five years. This performance will probably be rewarded by a higher market price when the company decides to go public.Our management is expected to use resources wisely, operate at a law price and make profit, create social impacts and abide by laws and regulations. The management philosophy will be based on team work, responsibility, and mutual respect. People who will work wit us would feel to be part of the team because we will operate in an environment that encourages creativity, diversity and growth.
