The Toulouse-based healthcare group Hygie 31, advised by Joffe & Associés (Christophe Joffe, Camille Malbezin and Oriana Castelli), is acquiring Distrimed, an online retailer of medical equipment and medical devices, in order to complete and consolidate its offerings on the market.
In 2023, Hygie31 will continue its expansion with the acquisition of Distrimed, a subsidiary of Bastide le Confort médical. This move reflects the determination of the group that owns the Lafayette chain to anticipate demographic trends and meet the growing need for home care.
“We are going to strengthen Distrimed and support its development. The company will continue to develop its BtoB activities and will become our online distribution base for medical equipment”. – Hervé Jouves, Chairman of Hygie 31.
With the integration of Distrimed, Hygie31’s digital offering will be enhanced by more than 6,000 references, including 20 new product families. This expansion will also open up access to healthcare professionals such as doctors and nurses.
Hygie 31 is acquiring all the shares in Distrimed, carrying out the transaction entirely in cash. This strategic takeover has generated enthusiasm within the network of brands, including pharmacies, parapharmacies, opticians and medical devices, which sees this transaction as a major opportunity. With this acquisition, the group headed by Hervé Jouve consolidates its presence while strengthening its digital activities, led by Dhygietal, the leader in online parapharmacy with sales of €80 million, as emphasised by Hervé Jouve, Chairman of Hygie 31.
