mPharma, the medicine supply-chain logistics solution, continues to attract direct foreign investment (DFI) on the continent. The most recent is the USA Development Finance Corporation (DFC), which signed off on a $4.5 million deal with the West African company. The funds will be used to boost the capital of the entity launched in 2013 in Ghana and which is now expanding into three other African markets: Kenya, Nigeria and Zambia.
