The Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (KEMSA) has won the Best Quality Leadership Award 2024, bestowed by the European Society for Quality Research (ESQR).

ESQR acknowledged KEMSA for its outstanding leadership under its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Andrew Mulwa and Board of Directors for implementing innovative approaches that have enhanced quality systems and transformed it into an efficient provider of Health Products and Technologies supply chain solutions.

“These initiatives have been credited with saving lives and improving health outcomes,” ESQR said.

The ESQR annual recognition program honored KEMSA among companies, institutions, and organizations worldwide.

Mulwa is set to accept the reward on behalf of KEMSA.

“Dr. Mulwa will receive the award on KEMSA’s behalf in Brussels in June,” KEMSA stated.

This milestone comes two months after Mulwa secured the African Governance Award,2024, in Malawi, recognition for his contribution to reshaping the authority into the most Outstanding Medical Supplies Authority across the African continent.
