French market entry strategy

The purchasing of medical goods in France goes through a local tendering system (issued by the hospitals themselves) or through (public or private) purchasing centers. Luctor Medical can fully assist you in defining a strategy to successfully enter the market and define a profile for a distribution partner that has access to the right purchasing structures and networks. Depending on the servicing and warehousing needs of your devices, we can also make recommendations for an optimal service and logistics structure. Finally, if you have not already done so, we can conduct an analysis of local competitors and their go-to-market models.

Medical Distributor Qualification in France

We thoroughly pre-qualify potential medical distribution partners in France based on your needs. This includes an intensive phone screening including evaluation of their experience, service level, KOL access, etc. followed by one-on-one interviews to determine a “short list” of qualified potential distribution partners. If desired, we can also conduct on-site evaluations of “short list” distributors to ensure everything is as presented. You will, of course, make the final selection based on your comfort level and analysis.
