About Uzbekistan

A country of 35 million people, a land where silk and spice once flowed along the storied trade routes of antiquity, modern-day Uzbekistan offers no shortage of intrigue for curious business travelers seeking vestiges of ages past. In the grand city of Tashkent, over 2,000 dancing fountains intermingle with Soviet architecture and Islamic designs, beckoning visitors to uncover this crossroads of culture. 

Journey to Khiva, an ancient walled city seemingly frozen in time, or wander the ruins of the legendary 2,500-year-old trading hub of Bukhara—both UNESCO World Heritage sites offering glimpses into Uzbekistan’s position as a one-time center of scholarship and commerce. 

Whether unearthing the secrets of turquoise-tiled madrasahs, purchasing the country’s famous golden apricots in crowded bazaars, or simply connecting with Uzbekistan’s storied past and dynamic present, adventures await for all who follow in the footsteps of history along the fabled Silk Road.

Uzbekistan’s Booming Pharmaceutical Market

Uzbekistan’s pharmaceutical sector has entered an era of rapid expansion, fueled by rising demand, supportive policies, and thriving local drug makers. With the market projected to exceed $2 billion by 2025, manufacturers have a timely opportunity to gain a foothold in this high-growth Eurasian country.

Robust Growth Across All Product Categories

Driven by greater health awareness and improved access, Uzbekistan’s pharma market has charted a 26% compound annual growth over the past three years, reaching around $1.5 billion in 2022. While patented drugs still lead, affordable generics and biosimilars are surging over 30% yearly.

With over half of expenditures out-of-pocket, retail pharma holds a 90% share. However, mandatory medical insurance rollout by 2025 will massively expand the hospital market, presenting openings for manufacturers.

Localization Incentives Offer Attractive Entry Routes

In line with import substitution goals, the government targets 80% domestic production by 2026. This has already attracted over 200 new local players, taking the total from 48 in 2017 to 226 now.

To enable tech and skill transfers, incentives promote tie-ups between multinationals and domestic firms. Joint ventures, contract manufacturing deals, and licensing agreements provide promising market access paths. Training programs and production clusters also augment localization appeal.

Registration Reforms and Expanding Coverage Accelerate Growth

Some key reforms like faster registration and pricing exemptions for innovations are already expanding access, while upcoming Eurasian Economic Union integration will ease regional trade. With over 90% insurance coverage expected, the addressable patient population and business potential will dramatically open up.

Export Focus and Digitalization Underpin Maturation

The business landscape is evolving as companies adopt new technologies to improve efficiency. This includes using blockchain for better supply chain visibility and big data to enhance research and development. In Uzbekistan, local firms are preparing to export pharmaceutical products and ingredients that meet international standards.

Uzbekistan offers a fertile ground for manufacturers looking to enter emerging markets, supported by strong growth, favorable policies, and the opportunity to partner with Delta Medical for early market advantages. The expansion of infrastructure and insurance coverage in the country further boosts the potential for providing high-quality, affordable medicines.
