Pharmacy Operating System

The operating system
serious pharmacies run on.

Inventory, point-of-sale, prescriptions, insurance claims, and KRA eTIMS — unified in one system, built for Kenyan retail pharmacy.

The Problem

Your pharmacy is complex.
Your software shouldn’t make it worse.

Most pharmacy software in Kenya was built for general retail and patched for pharmacy, or built for Western markets and patched for Kenya. The result: workarounds for insurance claims, manual prescription registers, eTIMS receipts handled outside the till, and no visibility into what your pharmacy is actually doing.

Stock loss is invisible until it’s catastrophic

Expired batches sit on shelves. Slow-movers tie up capital. By the time the spreadsheet says you have a problem, you have a write-off.

Insurance claims drain the day

Manually verifying member numbers, copays, and scheme rules at the counter slows queues and lets revenue leak. Submission and statement reconciliation eat hours every week.

Compliance lives in three places at once

eTIMS in one system, prescription register in a notebook, controlled-drugs ledger in a different cabinet. When the PPB inspector arrives, you spend a day reconstructing what you already did.

The Platform

One system.
Every pharmacy function.

Zameda is a single software platform that handles everything a Kenyan retail pharmacy does — from receiving stock to dispensing, from insurance claims to KRA eTIMS, from a single till to a multi-branch chain. No bolt-ons, no separate logins, no exports to spreadsheets.

Batch & expiry control

Track every lot. FEFO enforced automatically at dispensing. Expiry alerts before stock becomes waste. Full audit trail on every movement.

Prescription workflows

Link sales to prescriptions. Capture patient and prescriber details. Controlled-substance logging built into every dispense — no separate register.

Insurance claims

Manage AAR, Jubilee, NHIF, and other schemes inside the till. Verify members, calculate copay, capture claim details, and age the receivables — without leaving the POS.

KRA eTIMS, automatic

Every receipt is transmitted to KRA in real time. Failed transmissions queue and retry. Compliance happens in the background; you only see it when it needs your attention.

Clinical safety alerts

Allergy checks against patient records. Drug-interaction warnings before dispensing. Cold-chain monitoring for refrigerated medicines. Built in, not bolted on.

Multi-branch ready

Run one pharmacy or ten. Centralised reporting. Per-branch inventory. Inter-branch transfers. Shared supplier accounts. Same system, scales as you do.

How it Works

From sign-up to fully operational
in under a day.

01

Import your inventory

Upload existing stock as a CSV, or scan items in. Zameda maps products to a Kenyan SKU library, captures batches and expiry dates, and you start with everything in the system.

02

Configure your pharmacy

Set up branches, users (owners, pharmacists, cashiers), suppliers, insurance schemes, and reorder thresholds. Most pharmacies finish this step in 30 minutes.

03

Go live at the counter

Train your team in half a day. Sell, dispense, capture prescriptions, and process insurance from day one. Receipts transmit to KRA automatically.

04

See your business clearly

The analytics dashboard fills with real data from your first transaction. Make procurement and pricing decisions with actual numbers, not guesses.

Why Zameda

Built for the way Kenyan pharmacies
actually work.

01

Built for Kenya

KRA eTIMS, NHIF, M-Pesa, KES pricing, Safaricom SMS — every integration that matters in Kenya is in the box. Not a Western platform we localised; a system designed in Nairobi for Nairobi.

02

Insurance, not an afterthought

Most pharmacy systems handle insurance as an export-to-Excel workflow. Zameda treats it as a first-class part of the till, because in Kenya it is.

03

Compliance, automated

PPB-aligned dispensing rules. Controlled-drug logging without a parallel paper register. eTIMS transmissions you don’t have to babysit. The compliance work that costs you hours becomes background.

04

Your data, your data

Hosted in Hetzner Europe under a Kenyan-law Data Processing Agreement. Export everything as CSV any time. Cancel and we delete it. No lock-in, no surprises.
