Benefits of Choosing Progress Therapeutics

Embark on a journey with Progress Therapeutics, where your goals align with our mission to redefine healthcare accessibility in Canada. Let us assist you in making a positive impact on the health landscape of Canada.

For many companies, global expansion of their product and brand is a primary objective of their growth strategy. Successfully accessing foreign markets with your product requires a great deal of capital and knowledge of the new market. These two issues are often the limiting factors for companies looking to expand.

Expand Your Business Successfully

Clients using Progress Therapeutics for their importer of Record activities do not incur the expenses of carrying a full-time staff for Quality, Regulatory, and Office Management. Our clients do not have the need to maintain a physical address, or Establishment Licence. In essence, Progress Therapeutics acts as an extension of your company in Canada.

Increase Your Market Knowledge

Our clients gain access to our infrastructure, extensive regulatory knowledge and partnerships, at a fraction of the cost to maintain their own physical presence in Canada. Whether you are looking to form a long-term business relationship with Progress Therapeutics, or use our services during the New Drug Submission process, or until you have a foothold in the Canadian market, we look forward to assisting you with your expansion plans.

Alleviate Establishment Licence and Regulatory Burdens

We alleviate burdens associated with annual licensing, compliance procedures, and regulatory obligations. Progress offers our clients a strategic, cost-effective approach to navigating the complexities of the Canadian regulatory landscape.

This means you can achieve market access with less capital expenditure and ongoing costs.

Our proactive approach is designed to not only sidestep unnecessary delays and expenses but also to instill confidence in our clients, assuring them that Progress is not just a service provider, but a strategic partner deeply invested in the success of their endeavors.
