Our analysis draws on MINSA procurement data, IMS Health Peru figures, and private sector sales trends to give you a defensible market size estimate. You receive segmentation by region, channel, and patient population to prioritize your entry.

How It Works
From Brief to Board-Ready Intelligence
Our four-stage engagement is designed to move from your strategic brief to a fully validated, decision-ready intelligence report in six weeks or less.
Step 1 · Day 1-2
Strategic Scoping and Brief Alignment
We open with a structured scoping call to understand your product portfolio, target therapeutic categories, intended entry mode, and key decision criteria. This session defines the exact intelligence questions your leadership team needs answered and sets the scope boundaries so every research hour is focused on what matters most to your Peru entry decision.
Taevas Approach
Outputs from this stage include a signed scope-of-work document, a prioritized list of intelligence questions, a stakeholder map of your internal decision-makers, and a project timeline with milestone check-ins. We also confirm data source availability and flag any regulatory or market data gaps that may require primary research.

Active Sanitary Registrations with DIGEMID
Generics Dominate Volume
Generic medicines account for the majority of pharmaceutical units sold in Peru, driven by MINSA and EsSalud procurement policies that prioritize cost-effective generic procurement for the public health system. The Seguro Integral de Salud program, which covers a significant portion of the population, almost exclusively reimburses generics. This creates both a high-volume opportunity for generics manufacturers and a differentiation challenge for branded product entrants.
DIGEMID Modernization Underway
DIGEMID has been progressively modernizing its sanitary registration process, including the introduction of electronic submission platforms and accelerated pathways for products already registered with stringent regulatory authorities such as the FDA, EMA, or ANVISA. These reforms are reducing average approval timelines for qualifying products, but the process still requires careful documentation management and local regulatory representation. Staying current with DIGEMID circulars is essential for any market entrant.
Private Pharmacy Chains Consolidating
The retail pharmacy sector in Peru is undergoing significant consolidation, with InkaFarma and Mifarma together controlling a substantial share of private pharmacy sales in Lima and expanding aggressively into provincial cities. This consolidation gives chain buyers significant negotiating leverage over suppliers and is reshaping distributor relationships. Manufacturers entering the private channel must develop a clear chain pharmacy strategy alongside their traditional independent pharmacy approach.
Biosimilars and Specialty Drugs Emerging
Peru is seeing growing interest in biosimilar and specialty pharmaceutical products, particularly as EsSalud expands coverage for oncology, autoimmune, and rare disease treatments. DIGEMID has been developing a specific regulatory framework for biologics and biosimilars, aligning with international guidelines. This emerging segment represents a significant opportunity for manufacturers with biosimilar portfolios who move early to establish DIGEMID registrations and EsSalud formulary inclusion.

Who This Is For
Built for These Situations
Market Entry
Pharmaceutical Manufacturer Evaluating Peru for the First Time
Your company has identified Peru as a target market but lacks the on-the-ground intelligence to make a confident go or no-go decision. You need to understand DIGEMID registration timelines, which distribution channels are viable for your product type, and whether the competitive landscape leaves room for a new entrant at your target price point. Without this intelligence, your entry plan is built on assumptions that could cost millions to correct later.
Outcome
A validated go-to-market recommendation with a clear regulatory roadmap, channel strategy, and competitive positioning brief ready for board sign-off.
