Aspen Global’s role within the Aspen Group In addition to Aspen Global’s strategic role as a holding company, launch pad for global expansion and management of the intellectual property rights, Aspen Global plays a crucial operational role within the Aspen Group.

Aspen Global is responsible for sourcing and managing more than 3 500 stock keeping units from over 75 manufacturing sites around the world and supplying to more than 150 countries internationally. Since its inception Aspen Global has supplied 200 million packs of medicine worldwide and currently manages more than 6 000 orders and supplies 85 million packs annually. Many of the Aspen supplied medicines are lifesaving or medically critical.

Investing in our people The backbone of Aspen Global’s business, and one of the reasons for its success, is the talented pool of people comprising more than 150 staff members across nine departments. While the business had to initially rely exclusively on expatriates, we are now proud to have an 80% Mauritian staff complement. Most of these employees have been trained and developed to take on senior positions. In line with the Aspen Group’s policy, Aspen Global is a proud equal opportunity employer with 53% of the headcount comprising females and more than 15 different nationalities are represented.

Adding value to the Mauritian economy Aspen Global continues to be a valuable contributor to the Mauritian economy, with the following statistics being most notable:

➤➤ Total of 704 million Rupees paid in corporate tax since inception; ➤➤ Total of 93 million Rupees paid in PAYE since inception; ➤➤ More than 285 billion Rupees transacted in terms of banking for purposes of acquisitions, loans and on-going operations; and

➤➤ An average of three days and 29 675 Rupees spent on training per employee per annum.

Committed to CSR For the past three years Aspen Global has participated in the Aspen Group’s initiative to embrace and support Nelson Mandela International Day across its business units on six continents. In 2015 we will once again make a difference in the lives of less fortunate communities when we participate in the campaign. This annual event is particularly rewarding to beneficiaries and employees alike as our staff become actively involved in the event and personally reach out to those in need.

In addition, Aspen Global annually contributes to a number of corporate social responsibility activities in Mauritius and is a proud supporter of a number of NGOs. In 2014 Aspen sponsored more than seven projects in which cash was donated and staff participated in activities to provide improvements to communities in need.
