00:00Two companies have officially signed a partnership to help their common goal
00:06to improve the quality of healthcare services in the Philippines.
00:10Let's take a look at the details of this.
00:13On the other hand, for the development of healthcare in the Philippines,
00:28the country continues to face challenges such as a lack of modern use, technology, and innovation.
00:38New solutions and strong partnerships are essential to improve our healthcare services
00:47and meet the growing needs of the public.
00:51Moreover, the Contract Signing Ceremony was held recently
00:57between Terumo Marketing Philippines Inc. and Zaphire Distributors Inc.
01:02with the theme of Shared Vision, Shared Success.
01:05It was led by the two leading leaders of the two companies.
01:09This partnership was created for the Terumo products to be more accessible to hospitals
01:17and therefore to our patients in the Philippines.
01:21Not only in the Philippines but globally,
01:23that is the shared vision and shared success that we want to have.
01:27With this partnership, the Terumo products will be able to help elevate healthcare systems in the Philippines.
01:35Here, the President of Zaphire Distributors Inc. and the Vice President of G-MEDS Division
01:42shared their role in the so-called partnership
01:44to improve the safety and quality of healthcare services in our country.
01:51We saw that there are still many opportunities and hospitals that do not use our products.
01:58So, we will try to make sure that all of these hospitals get the experience that they need
02:07through the equipment that we will sell, which is Terumo products.
02:11When there are Terumo products, we are not sure if they are real or fake.
02:19So, we will help Terumo to get the intellectual property papers that we submit to the IPO office.
02:28We will submit it to the online market and then they will purge.
02:32So, that's the first thing that may happen as we enter into this partnership.
02:38Aside from this, the Japan-based global device company, Terumo Marketing Philippines Inc.
02:45also shared some of their products and programs.
02:48We have a lot of products in our portfolio.
02:52So, starting with syringes that are used daily in hospitals by doctors and nurses,
03:00and even the doctors, to the more sophisticated and elaborate machines
03:05such as our infusion pumps, injection pumps.
03:11We also have a lot of big machines that can also help our patients.
03:17We don't just distribute products, but we partner with our stakeholders.
03:22For example, hospitals, nurses, medtech, and even the doctors,
03:28they are considered the users of our products.
03:31We partner with them through training to teach them how to use our products
03:37and understand how our products can help them improve the care of the patients.
03:44In the last three and a half decades of experience and strong reputation of Zafar Distributors Inc.,
03:50Terumo Marketing Philippines Inc. considers it as the right body
03:55in the development of high-quality products and medical technologies.
04:00Nine years ago, they started distributing our blood and cell technology business.
04:05From then on, we had a lot of experience with Zafar.
04:09We chose Zafar simply because we had a shared mission
04:14and the desire to advance healthcare in the Philippines.
04:18Unlike other distributors and other partners in the past,
04:22Zafar actually came in with an intent not just to sell our products,
04:27but to also understand the pain points of the hospital customers
04:31and how our products could actually contribute to address those pain points
04:36in the practice of our hospitals, nurses, and doctors.
04:40As you progress to something better, you always want for something more,
04:44but there's always room for growth.
04:46Consistency and not being complacent because of the previous success
04:51is perhaps the most challenging in the future.
04:53So what we can do about it is regular checks.
04:56Make sure to check the pulse of the customers as well.
04:59Make sure that we are okay with each other and having open discussions.
05:05With this partnership, the foundation of health in the country will become stronger
05:13and more confident that a healthy and safer Philippines will be achieved for all.
