Healthcare Distribution Association
The Healthcare Distribution Association is a trade association for wholesalers in the British pharmaceutical industry.[1]
It has offices in Long Acre and operates across the United Kingdom. The director general is Warwick Smith and Martin Sawer is the executive director.
In August 2019 it warned that a no-deal Brexit would be a threat to pharmaceutical supplies and that the proposed mitigation measures - stockpiling and flying stock into the UK was not suitable for most medicines, especially temperature-controlled and short shelf-life products.[2]
