What We Deliver
Six Pillars of Bangladesh Pharmaceuticals Intelligence
Our six interconnected pillars give pharmaceuticals companies a complete, actionable picture of the local manufacturer landscape in Bangladesh from regulatory standing to production capacity.
01
Regulatory Compliance Mapping
We audit each candidate manufacturer's current DGDA licensing status, GMP certification history, and Drug Act 1940 compliance record. Our team cross-references WHO-GMP and local inspection reports to surface any compliance gaps before you commit. This gives you a clear risk-adjusted shortlist rather than a raw directory of names.
DGDA manufacturing license verification
WHO-GMP and local GMP audit history review
Drug Act 1940 and Drugs Ordinance 1982 compliance check
How It Works
From Brief to Board-Ready Intelligence
Our structured four-step engagement transforms your product brief and market ambitions into a verified manufacturer shortlist and a clear regulatory roadmap, ready to present to your leadership team.
Step 1 · Day 1-2
Discovery and Scoping
We conduct a structured intake session to understand your product portfolio, target dosage forms, volume expectations, and non-negotiable compliance standards. Your existing regulatory dossiers and technology transfer constraints are reviewed to define the precise manufacturer profile we will search for. A signed scope document and project timeline are issued within 48 hours.
Taevas Approach
The intake session covers therapeutic category, active ingredient sensitivity, required certifications (WHO-GMP, ISO, PICS), preferred facility location within Bangladesh, and any existing regional partnerships that must be avoided. We also capture your preferred deal structure, whether contract manufacturing, licensing, or a joint-venture arrangement, so the search is calibrated from the start.

Domestic Demand Met by Local Production
Export-Ready Manufacturing Base
Bangladesh exports pharmaceuticals to over 150 countries, with a growing number of facilities holding WHO-GMP certification and US FDA or EU approval. This export discipline has raised overall quality standards across the local manufacturing base, making it easier for foreign licensors to find partners that can meet international dossier requirements. The country's cost-competitive production environment adds further appeal for companies seeking to serve both the domestic and regional export markets.
DGDA Regulatory Evolution
The Directorate General of Drug Administration has been progressively tightening GMP enforcement and moving toward CTD-aligned dossier requirements to harmonize with international standards. New product registrations for foreign-origin products require a local manufacturer or licensed importer, making the local manufacturing partnership a mandatory gateway rather than an optional cost play. Recent amendments to the National Drug Policy have also introduced stricter pharmacovigilance obligations for registered products.
Generics-Dominated Opportunity
Approximately 95 percent of the Bangladesh pharmaceuticals market by volume consists of generic medicines, creating a high-volume, price-sensitive competitive environment where manufacturing efficiency and regulatory speed are the primary differentiators. International companies with patented or specialty products benefit from a less crowded competitive field but must still navigate DGDA's registration timeline and local manufacturing requirements. The government's Essential Drug List drives significant public procurement volume through central medical stores.
Technology Upgrade Cycle
Leading Bangladeshi manufacturers are investing heavily in biologics, oncology injectables, and novel oral dosage forms to move up the value chain and capture export premiums. This technology upgrade cycle creates opportunities for foreign companies to bring proprietary formulation technology or active pharmaceutical ingredients into licensing arrangements with ambitious local partners. Facilities in the Munshiganj API Industrial Park and Dhaka Export Processing Zones are at the forefront of this modernization wave.
