Zrosk Investment Acquires 10% Stake in MeCure Industries
Zrosk Investment Management Limited has acquired 10% equity stake in MeCure Industries Plc, according to an official statement. The transaction which was conducted off-market, has been finalized following approval from the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX).
MeCure Industries said this strategic investment marks a significant milestone for the company as it continues to strengthen its capital base and accelerate its growth trajectory.
Management said the partnership with Zrosk Investment, a prominent player in the investment management space, brings not only financial backing but also a shared vision to expand and enhance MeCure’s footprint in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors.
Commenting on the acquisition, Arjun Udani, Co-CEO of MeCure Industries Plc, said, “We are delighted to welcome Zrosk Investment Management Ltd as a key shareholder in MeCure.
“This investment reflects the confidence in our long-term growth strategy and our commitment to delivering quality healthcare solutions to millions of Nigerians.
“With Zrosk’s support, we are well-positioned to execute our ambitious expansion plans and continue making a positive impact on the healthcare sector in Nigeria and beyond.”
Also, the Managing Director/Chief Investment Officer of Zrosk Investment Management Ltd, Samson Esemuede, expressed his excitement about the partnership, saying: “One of our core convictions at Zrosk IM is that ownership of industrial capacity on the African continent is shifting towards indigenous hands.
“We view the stock market as a theatre of such transition, and we see Mecure Industries as a potential dominant player in the pharmaceutical value chain on the continent.
“We were drawn to Mecure Industries’ commitment to domesticate pharmaceutical industrial and intellectual capacity which we view as critical especially within the context of extremely high level of pharmaceutical product price inflation.
“From our analysis, Mecure Industries can deliver products in critical therapeutic areas at a unit cost that helps drive affordability across the population. We are thus proud to be a part of this journey and look forward to supporting Mecure’s ambitious current and future plans”
This transaction aims to improve operational efficiencies, and provide greater access to resources necessary for advancing its market position. #Zrosk Investment Acquires 10% Stake in MeCure Industries
