Micro Clinic - accelerating accessible healthcare in Africa



Following a franchise business model that combines ownership with proven operating, marketing, and distribution standards, MicroClinic empowers community health nurses to own and grow their own MicroClinic.

MicroClinic says it will offer standardized operating practices and consistent levels of quality and care, building community acceptance and awareness while creating interest and demand for additional MicroClinics to serve new communities.
This unique hybrid model will work well for the Bottom of the Pyramid consumers in Africa.
