Chemopharm announces expanded distribution partnership with Mindray in Malaysia

April, 2019 – Chemopharm Sdn Bhd, an Everlife investment and leading laboratory and medical devices distributor headquartered in Malaysia, is pleased to announce the completion of an asset purchase for Mindray hematology and clinical chemistry analyzers from Histocenter (M) Sdn Bhd in Malaysia.

Chemopharm has an existing agreement with Mindray to distribute the leading Chinese IVD company’s CLIA immunoassay and 5-part Hematology products, and with the completion of this transaction, Chemopharm will represent Mindray in Malaysia across their 3 biggest IVD product segments.

The hematology, clinical chemistry and CLIA segments are traditionally the largest segments within the IVD space and are expected to grow at around 8% p.a. in the next 3 years.

This is largely driven by the expansion of medical facilities in 2 nd tier cities and middle-class hospitals across Malaysia, both in the public and private sectors. Mindray’s analyzers uniquely meet the needs of this high-growth segment by providing products with high quality specifications at highly competitive prices.

This deal and the expanded partnership with Mindray will allow Chemopharm to boost its presence within the IVD space in Malaysia. Ms Mok Hueh Min, Group CEO, Chemopharm Group stated: “This deal represents a significant turning point in our partnership with Mindray.

The expanded portfolio allows us to improve our offering and value proposition to our customers and to accelerate the growth of the business in Malaysia. We look forward to strengthening the partnership and to work together to provide customers with continued top quality service and support.”
