Female health signs distribution agreement with Fuji Latex

Chicago, Illinois - The Female Health Company (FHC) has appointed Fuji Latex as FHC's exclusive marketer and distributor of the female condom in Japan. The agreement was signed March 28, 2006 and completes FHC's plan to bring the FC female condom to Japanese women. In 2004 FHC and Fuji Latex signed an importation and quality agreement and since then Fuji Latex has received regulatory approval to import the FC Female Condom (FC) in Japan.

Japan is the largest male condom market in the developed world. Fuji Latex is one of the largest manufacturers and distributors of male condoms in Japan having a significant market share of the male condom market. Previous studies conducted in Japan showed that Japanese women and their partners found using the female condom acceptable. FHC and Fuji Latex believe that the combined know how and expertise of the two companies results in a strong position for successful integration of the FC female condom in the overall Japanese condom market.
