Our Group:- Middle East Chemicals “MEC” United Company of Pharmacists “UCP” United Company for Trading & Distribution “UCTD” Company Profile:- When the Chairman of Middle East Chemicals (MEC), United Company of Pharmacists (UCP), and United Company for Trading & Distribution (UCTD) Dr Hossam Omar, started his private business, pharmacists in Egypt were suffering. Each pharmaceutical company catered for the needs of pharmacies around the country from their own factories in Cairo and Alexandria and, consequently pharmaceutical outlets had to wait for more than one month to take delivery of their orders. Moreover, they had to call in person at the state-owned pharmaceutical distribution center and wait in long queues for their turn to collect their needs. What put Dr. Hossam Omar ahead of his peers is that very early he realized that distribution was one of the pillars for a successful pharmaceutical industry. Paradoxically, it was a sector that nobody had paid attention to; and was the most problematic area in the industry. Dr. Hossam Omar feared that things could get worse after the complete opening-up of the Egyptian economy as these serious problems will become more acute.
