Mediq CombiCare acquires Dutch medical devices business in Arnhem
Mediq CombiCare acquires Hodes Medische Speciaalzaken. Hodes, a medical specialist business, supplies ostomy, incontinence and wound care products. It is a regional player based in Arnhem, with 20 employees. With this acquisition, Mediq CombiCare is strengthening its leading market position.
Cristel Hodes, Director of Hodes: “We thought long and hard about this step. We want to retain our strong regional presence. That said, we also realise that we lack the economies of scale needed to meet the continually growing requirements of health insurers, which is why we’re joining Mediq CombiCare. They are a strong player in ostomy, incontinence and wound care, so we know for sure that, under the Mediq flag, our patients will still be in outstanding hands.”
Marcel van den Broek, Executive Vice-President at Mediq: “We’re very pleased with this expansion in the Arnhem region. This acquisition fits in very well with our strategy for continued growth in the field of delivering medical devices for homecare. As such, we’d like to extend a warm welcome to our new colleagues.”
