Who buys pharmaceutical worldwide

The main buyers are World Bank-financed health projects, UN agencies (UNICEF, UNFPA, WHO) and national governments. Understanding which body owns the budget, and whether they buy through a framework, a Dynamic Purchasing System or open tender, is often the difference between a bid that lands and one that never gets seen.
