The Problem

India's Pharma Supply Chain
Is Running on Manual Processes.

With 900,000+ pharmacies requiring daily replenishment, the distribution system relies on phone calls, WhatsApp, and informal routing — creating a structural gap that costs everyone.

Fragmented Ordering

Pharmacies place orders with multiple wholesalers manually — by phone or WhatsApp — leading to missed items, delays, and stockouts.

Multiple Deliveries Per Day

Each wholesaler sends a separate delivery, creating congestion, wasted time for pharmacy staff, and redundant last-mile cost.

No Cold-Chain for Heat-Sensitive Medicines

Insulin, vaccines, and biologics are routinely transported without temperature control, risking efficacy and patient safety.

High Distributor Delivery Costs

Low delivery density, poor route optimisation, and ad-hoc scheduling push cost-per-order higher with no scalable fix.

Result: Inefficient operations, lost sales, stockouts, compromised drug quality, and delayed patient access to medicines.
How It Works

The Infrastructure Layer
Powering Pharma Distribution.

Audel sits between wholesalers and pharmacies — not replacing existing relationships, but making them dramatically more efficient.

01

Pharmacy places order

Pharmacies continue ordering directly from their existing wholesalers — no change to procurement behaviour.

02

Audel aggregates

Orders across multiple wholesalers are collected and consolidated on the Audel platform.

03

Route optimised

Smart batching creates efficient delivery clusters, maximising drop density and minimising cost per stop.

04

Last-mile executed

Audel's fleet executes the delivery — including temperature-controlled transport for heat-sensitive medicines.

Cold-chain enabled
05

Single delivery

Each pharmacy receives one consolidated, reliable delivery per day — faster and more predictable than before.

The Audel difference
Cold-Chain Infrastructure

Most Deliveries Are
Putting Patients at Risk.

Insulin, vaccines, and biologics require strict temperature control throughout transit. Today, most last-mile pharma delivery in India happens with zero temperature monitoring — a silent quality failure that goes undetected until it reaches the patient.

Audel is building the first scalable cold-chain-enabled last-mile delivery network for India's pharmaceutical supply chain.
