Providing caregivers with more than just homecare products

NEARLY one in four Singaporeans will be 65 or older by 2030. Recognising that this demographic shift means a growing demand for quality eldercare, Victor Yeap set up Yeap Medical Supplies (YMS) in 2000.

As a wholesaler and retailer of medical and homecare supplies, YMS also sees itself as a source of support for caregivers.

One way that it performs this role is through its retail business, Pharmex Healthcare. Here, YMS aims to make medical-grade healthcare products more accessible to the public, in terms of both geographical location and pricing.
