Dear Sir/Madam,
Subject: Register your Participation: Pharmexcil Business Delegation (physical) to Chile, Peru, Guatemala and Colombia during 01.Dec.2025 to 12.Dec.2025
We would like to bring to your kind notice that Pharmexcil with the support of the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India is organizing Business Delegation to Chile, Peru, Guatemala & Colombia during 01.Dec.2025 to 12.Dec.2025. The Delegation visit and its dates have been shared with the Missions and received confirmation for the same.
The delegation is planned to visit these countries under the MAI activity of the Council. India’s drugs and pharmaceutical exports stood at US$ 30.46 billion in FY25. The LAC region offers great potential for Indian pharmaceutical products and our exports during the FY 2024-25 is USD 2036 mn contributing about 6.69 % of the total pharma exports from India.
LAC Region is one of the major importers of Indian generic medicines with an approximately USD 40 BN generic market. Considering the nature of the region falling into the Focus area for pharmaceutical exports from India and to accomplish the ambitious target of USD 130 bn by 2030 and also to brand India pharma, Pharmexcil proposes to organize a Business Delegation (physical) to Chile, Peru, Guatemala and Colombia. A tentative schedule is attached for your kind reference.
