Grant Description

The U.S.

Government, through USAID, awarded the historic $650 million (Kenya Shillings 65 billion) KEMSA Medical Commodities Project (MCP) on September 25, 2015 - the largest award by a USAID bilateral mission ever.

KEMSA MCP will procure, warehouse and distribute medications and equipment funded by PEPFAR, the Presidents Malaria Initiative and USAID Global Health programs for maternal and child health and family planning. KEMSA MCP is the first USAID direct contract with KEMSA, following decades of U.S. Government supported supply-chain programs.
