Rx for Africa, Inc., a public New Jersey Corp, invests in companies manufacturing generic pharmaceuticals in Sub-Saharan Africa. Rx for Africa (formerly Diamond Entertainment) has eschewed its entertainment business for a career in health care. The company acquired Rx Africa (Ethiopia) PLC, a developer and manufacturer of generic pharmaceuticals including treatments for AIDS/HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria, in 2007. To focus its business on pharmaceuticals, the company has changed its name and is discontinuing its DVD distribution operations. Rx for Africa is seeking other acquisitions in sub-Saharan Africa to expand its pharmaceutical manufacturing operations in the region.
