In response to the community transmission phase of the COVID 19 pandemic in Nigeria, Emzor Pharmaceutical Industries has rolled out its COVID 19 Response Program tagged EMZOR CARES.

The program comprises a series of interventions to complement the various measures of Government and create much needed succour at various touch points with the public.

Emzor also plays a support role by continuing production in all of its four factories in both Lagos and Ogun States, providing healthcare products to Nigerians during this pandemic.

“Our goal is to continue to keep Nigerians safe by providing immune-boosting medications like vitamins, supplements and nutritional oils.

“The EMZOR CARES Program demonstrates the company’s support and celebration of the front-line workers (the Police, LASTMA, FRSC and LSNC). In meeting the increasing demand for face masks as a vital protective measure against coronavirus, Emzor is also reaching out to pharmacies, hospitals, customers and local communities with donations of relief and protective items. Beneficiary hospitals include Kupa Medical and Isolo General Hospitals. In addition, Emzor has made donations of relief items to both Lagos and Ogun State Governments while also donating palliative and food items to communities in Isolo Lagos and Shagamu in Ogun State.

“With the EMZOR CARES program, Emzor celebrates all front line workers during the COVID 19 pandemic, honouring their sacrifice to keep our nation safe. Key elements of EMZOR CARES include free face masks, alcohol-based Emzor Sterilink Sanitizers, and Emzor Paracetamol for frontline workers. The EMZOR CARES Initiative is consistent with Emzor’s commitment to ensure Unlimited Wellness for all Nigerians”, the company’s official statement reads.

As an indigenous company, Emzor is leading by example, with more than 120 quality healthcare products. The company has recently commenced production at its new ultra-modern factory at Shagamu in Ogun State. The world class factory is in compliance with World Health Organization standards, adheres to current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) protocols and has vastly expanded Emzor’s production capacity in order to meet the increasing health needs of Nigeria in particular and Africa at large.

With this development, Emzor is poised to play a key role in supporting the Nigerian Government to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the health sector.

Meanwhile,the company urged Nigerians to continue to stay safe and adhere to the protective measures put in place by the Government and health agencies.
