VibroSense Dynamics AB (VibroSense) has received the company's largest order to date, with a value of at least 3.8 million EUR. It is the new Chinese customer and distributor Genertec Universal Medical Group (UMCARE), who placed a first order for VibroSense Meter® II in an agreement that initially extends over three years. The order is conditional on the product VibroSense Meter® II receiving a market approval in China.
Earlier today, VibroSense announced that the company has signed a distributor agreement with Genertec Universal Medical Group (UMCARE) with the exclusive right to sell VibroSense’s product VibroSense Meter® II in the Chinese market.
UMCARE which is a subsidiary of China's 42nd largest state-owned company, China General Technology Group, has an extensive infrastructure. This includes its own hospitals and a large organization for marketing, sales and distribution in the Chinese healthcare sector. Through UMCARE, which is one of three state-owned Chinese companies in Healthcare, VibroSense gains access to an extremely strong partner in the Chinese market.
UMCARE has representatives in all provinces of China, which in turn have local sales networks. UMCARE will thus sell the product VibroSense Meter® II both through its sales networks and directly to end customers in China.
Sales with deliveries can begin as soon as VibroSense Meter® II has received regulatory market approval in China, which is expected to be ready in Q2 2023. The order value of initially at least 3.8 million EUR applies for the first three years from the start of sales. The parties agree that this value may increase further during the time of the agreement.
“We are incredibly proud and happy to receive a large order from UMCARE at this early stage. The order is a strong confirmation of the trust and confidence in our company's technology and the instrument VibroSense Meter II. This is an important milestone for VibroSense and we believe that there is great potential for expansion in China. The order from UMCARE gives us the opportunity to increase the growth rate for our company in parallel to continuing our launch efforts within the diabetes segment in the Nordic region and Germany”, says Hans Wallin, CEO at VibroSense Dynamics.
