Welcome note from
General Manager
The people of Uganda put National Medical Stores in place through an Act of Parliament and gave it a three-fold mandate: to Procure, Warehouse and Distribute Essential Medicines and Medical Supplies, primarily to Government health facilities.We have tried our best to fulfill the aspirations of the framers of the NMS Act of 1993. This has been achieved by crystallizing the mandate, which is clearly stated in the law, and by also involving our major stakeholders, getting their input whenever we are designing processes that are employed to deliver the mandate.
NMS has further crystallized this mandate to focus on major deliverables. One is to ensure that we stock all the essential medicines and medical supplies that the health facilities have quantified through their procurement plans, against the available budget.
Mr Moses Kamabare
Our Management Team At National Medical Stores (NMS), our leadership is made up of experienced professionals committed to ensuring efficient, transparent, and reliable delivery of medicines and health supplies across Uganda. Our team brings together deep expertise in supply chain management, public health, finance, operations, and policy — working together to uphold our mandate and serve every Ugandan. We believe that strong leadership is critical to maintaining the trust of our stakeholders and achieving lasting impact in the healthcare system.
