This solution allows vast improvements to Nahdi Medical’s financial management and planning capabilities, placing the company in a strong position to expand its operations in line with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 ambition to increase the private sector participation in the provision of healthcare services. Saudi Arabia is the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) leader in pharmaceuticals, with the region set to double its pharmaceutical drug market to USD 20 billion by 2025, according to Kuick Research.
Nahdi Medical operates the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region’s largest pharmacy retail chain, with a network of pharmacies in all cities and villages across Saudi Arabia, a clinic in Jeddah, and an expanding presence in the UAE. The size and scale of the growing company presented challenges for its finance department, which had relied on manual systems for tasks including payments, financial control and financial planning.
Mohamed Seddeak, head of treasury and corporate finance at Nahdi Medical, said: “By deploying Infor Treasury, we have completely transformed the way our finance department operates. We can now achieve far more with the same resources, while gaining a wealth of data and analysis to help us plan effectively as we expand our operation with medical clinics in Saudi Arabia and new pharmacies in our home market and across the GCC.”
