About Irebe Biotech

Breaking the Cycle of Africa’s Reliance on Imported Medicines

“Scientia Inservitio Populi — Knowledge in Service of the People.”

Founded by brothers Eric and Darius Uzabakiriho, Irebe Biotech was born from a critical insight: Rwanda — like much of Africa — depended heavily on pharmaceutical imports, causing delays of up to three months and exorbitant costs for patients.

Today, we manufacture medicines, medicated cosmetics, and household health products to the highest standards, adhering to Rwanda’s strict regulatory requirements for safety, quality, and efficacy.
