The India Market

Delivered through a hybrid network of pharmacy chains, professional partners, and e-commerce platforms, Stemtech India (SHIPL) aims to redefine preventive health and cellular rejuvenation for every Indian household."

David Das, Director of Innoventure Dynamic LLP comments that India is one of the world's youngest large consumer markets with a median age of ~29 and an average household size of ~4.4 people, creating a natural fit for a family-focused wellness solution. Stemtech India plans a blended distribution model that combines organized retail pharmacy chains (anchored by a major chain's 5,500+ omni-channel outlets) with a phased rollout across India's 1.24 million+ retail chemist counters, supported by robust direct-to-consumer e-commerce marketing, including the leading e-pharmacies. The Company will also activate strong professional recommendations from physicians, dentists and veterinarians nationwide. This marketing plan positions Stemtech India to scale quickly in India's $32-billion-USD plus nutraceuticals market, while providing convenient access and trusted guidance to consumers and their families."

John W. Meyer, President & COO of Stemtech Corporation & Managing Director of Stemtech HealthSciences India Pvt Ltd, advises "this entry strategy is well planned, with focus on distribution of our all-natural, plant-based stemceutical™ products, plus oral care, skin care and pet care through retail pharmacy access points: 1.24 million+ retail chemists & druggists nationwide. The largest organized chain has 5,500+ outlets with strong omnichannel (leverages India's physical pharmacy trust while scaling repeat online orders). Organized retail pharmacy (national chains): with 30-35% of market penetration; The initial focus will be on the top 200 cities in India, leveraging regional super-stores plus 1,000 distributor lanes with the intent to reach a priority of ~80,000 doors in 24 months, scaling thereafter. The base universe of 1.24 million+ outlets, representing significant revenue opportunities within India."

Mr. Meyer continues that "sales will also be through allopathic and AYUSH¹ doctors, dentists (OraStem), and veterinarians (StemPets). India has 1,386,135 registered allopathic doctors in 2025 according to the India Central Bureau of Health; dentists ~150,000; veterinarians ~82k (registered). Further, our reach will also extend via e-commerce. India has ~900 million internet users; ~7%-9% of retail sales are online and growing rapidly. This mix was strategically determined as India's e-retail is already at scale with 270 million shoppers, yet brick-and-mortar pharmacies remain the everyday health front-line (with over a million sales locations). This blended model will maximize trial sales (offline) and repeat/auto-ship sales(online). We are very excited about this opportunity to share health and wellness in a market which has relied on natural means of health for centuries. These synergies between Stemtech and India are of great significance for this important global market, where people already believe in the same philosophy of good health, naturally."
