How WB Supported ORAFOL in India
When ORAFOL’s management decided to expand to India, WB was at their side. From the very beginning, WB supported customer access, compliance, and operations — even during the difficult COVID period — enabling ORAFOL to become operational within just six months.
As Raunak puts it:
“You need a very, very good partner when it comes to India, and we are lucky that we had WB with us working day and night to make it happen.”
