IDA Foundation (full name: “Stichting International Dispensary Association”) is a not-for-profit organisation that supplies essential medicines and medical supplies to low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and to emergency situations worldwide. Access to affordable essential medicines and medical supplies remains out of reach for too many people. IDA Foundation bridges these gaps, ensuring that healthcare providers and their patients have access to quality products at an affordable price.

We distribute around 3,000 products to a wide range of customers in over 130 countries. Our warehouse in Dubai stocks over 500 different products, enabling us to fulfil standard customer orders quickly and manage emergency response activities, including kitting services since 2019.

Founded in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in 1972, we have grown into a global organisation with offices in India, China, Nigeria and Dubai, as well as a representative network of agents and distributors offering local services in over 30 countries.
