Exporting medicine from the UK to Africa

Question

I am going to export medicine from the UK to Africa/Somalia. I know I have to register the company in my destination country as their representative of that company.

How should I ask formally to be a representative of a pharmaceutical company?
Do I need to have a licence to export of medicine out of UK?

Ideally I need to know how I should ask for depute authority in a business in a formal way.

Thanks
