ABOUT BRIMCHEM

Brimchem SA (Pty) Ltd, a South African company and founded in 2005, focuses on the sourcing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients from China. With offices in both South Africa (Cape Town) and China (Shanghai) we are able to efficiently and effectively manage the supply chain between our Chinese manufacturing partner and our customer.

Our business model is to work on a project by project basis with our customers. Brimchem is small enough to ensure individual attention to each project, but large enough to allow us to support the required structures to ensure prompt and efficient service in all areas of the supply chain, particulary logistics, regulatory, GMP and technical support.

Brimchem prides itself in offering its customers and suppliers outstanding and personalized service. We are efficient, effective, pro-active and go the extra mile in adding value to the supply chain, from both our customer’s and supplier’s point of view.

Our staff is highly qualified and has many years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry. The Cape Town office focuses on marketing, sales, regulatory support and logistics. The Shanghai office, which is staffed with Chinese graduates, is responsible for sourcing/procurement, daily contact with our Chinese partners and regular factory visits, cGMP audits (assisted by our international GMP consultants) and supply logistics.

Our logistics department in Cape Town maintains constant liaison between the terminal customer and our office in Shanghai. The Shanghai office allows for daily communication with the API manufacturer and prompt and accurate feedback to our customer. This set up allows for the close monitoring of projects and the prompt resolution of queries.

Brimchem’s strategy is to build and maintain a long term business relationship with our customers and Chinese suppliers – it is our relationship that gives us the competitive edge and makes the difference!
