Frequently asked questions
All FAQsWhat is a PCD pharma franchise?
PCD (propaganda-cum-distribution) is a model where a pharma company appoints a distributor to market and distribute its products in a defined area. Terms, minimum orders and territory rules are set by each company in its own agreement.
Is a monopoly franchise listed here legally exclusive?
No listing creates legal exclusivity. Territory status on this site reflects what the supplier last confirmed to us and when. Exclusivity exists only if it is written into your signed agreement with the company.
What does “Verified” mean?
Our review team checked documents the company uploaded (for example a drug licence or GST registration) and recorded the decision, date and validity period. It is not a product approval, a quality guarantee or an endorsement.
Who receives my contact details when I submit a requirement?
Our CRM team validates your requirement first. Your details are then shared only with a small number of matching suppliers (up to the limit in the Lead Sharing Policy), or only with the suppliers you selected if you did not consent to wider matching. Every share is logged.
Do I need a drug licence to start a PCD franchise?
Generally a distributor needs an appropriate wholesale drug licence and GST registration to trade in medicines. Requirements vary by state; check with your State Drug Control authority. We record your licence status only to help suppliers assess fit.
How are suppliers matched to my requirement?
A transparent rule-based score that weighs therapy fit, territory status, business model, budget compatibility, verification and profile freshness/response. Every match shows what fits, what is unconfirmed and what you should clarify. A score is not a quality guarantee.
