Behind the Product: How Our Certifications Support Global Market Access

For institutional buyers evaluating a new pharmaceutical supplier, certifications aren't decoration — they're the paper trail that lets a procurement officer sign off on a contract with confidence. Here's what sits behind the badges on our Quality & Compliance page, and why each one matters practically.

ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001

These three certifications cover quality management, environmental management, and occupational health and safety respectively. Together, they confirm that our Skims Pharma brand's operations are run against documented, independently audited systems — not just internal policy. For a buyer, this translates into consistency: the product you receive on your fifth order should match the first.

WHO ML3 and EU GMP

Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) compliance is the baseline expectation for any pharmaceutical manufacturer, but the specific scheme behind that claim matters. Meeting both WHO ML3 and EU GMP standards means our Skims Pharma brand's facility has been assessed against two of the more widely recognized international benchmarks — relevant whether you're procuring for a WHO-aligned tender or a market that references EU standards in its own regulatory framework.

Kenya PPB GMP Certification

Beyond the international schemes, market-specific certification matters too. Our GMP certification from Kenya's Pharmacy and Poisons Board directly supports product registration and market access in Kenya and other PPB-recognized markets — a concrete example of certification translating into actual market entry, not just a badge on a page.

What This Means for Due Diligence

None of these certifications are self-declared. Each is independently issued, and documentation is available to buyers directly as part of their own due diligence process — get in touch via our Contact page to request it.
