IDH has earned a trusted reputation…
IDH is one of the Middle East and Africa's key healthcare operators, with a footprint covering Egypt, Jordan, Sudan and Nigeria. It has earned a trusted reputation in the region as a company committed to the provision of high-quality services from its base of over 550 branches. The company aims to be a leading healthcare provider in every community and
region that it serves, becoming every doctor and patient's first choice for
quality, accurate diagnostic testing and cost effective services.
… in an industry with favorable dynamics
The highly-fragmented and underpenetrated
nature of IDH’s Middle East and African markets create a growth opportunity for
the Group. Powerful structural growth drivers underpin a promising outlook for
medical diagnostic services in these emerging regions, including: large,
rapidly-growing populations; a high disease burden with an increasing
prevalence of lifestyle-related medical conditions; and the heightened health
consciousness of a rising middle class.
… backed by a scalable asset-light business model
IDH deploys an asset-light business model that
enables the Group to grow in a capital-efficient manner. There are two
strategic components to the model, one of which is a “Hub, Spoke and Spike”
network of branch laboratories that is easily scalable. The other is key
supplier relationships that also support rapid expansion without the Company
having to purchase expensive medical diagnostic equipment.
