Murtuza Tambawala · Founder / CEO

The previous financial year propelled Kanlife forward and helped us further strengthen our position as the distribution partner of choice. We closed the year with revenue growth of 103%, reinforcing our core strengths as a value-added distributor in the medical-equipment space — an expanding network, increasing reach, and sales-centric financial solutions.

We have set ourselves a target to double our channel-partner network, triple our field force and double our warehousing space, in line with Kanlife’s larger vision and mission.

Kanlife’s customers, channel partners and employees will remain at the centre of all our decisions.
