Zealand region covers the remainder of the island beyond the capital, a mixed market of framework hospitals alongside a major new regional hospital under construction at Køge.
Zealand region (Sjælland) encompasses the southern and western portions of the island together with Lolland-Falster, beyond the capital, with its administrative seat established at Sorø. It runs acute hospitals at Roskilde, Køge, Næstved, Slagelse, Holbæk and Nykøbing Falster, and Køge University Hospital is being built into a major new regional hospital, so the region combines established framework buying with a significant construction and fit-out programme.
MediGear is a UK-registered medical equipment distributor and B2B marketplace working with verified manufacturers and healthcare buyers in more than 80 countries. Its partner program opens that catalogue to companies registered in Zealand. The purchasing institutions include the acute hospitals at Roskilde, Køge, Næstved, Slagelse and Holbæk, the new Køge University Hospital as it comes on stream, the Nykøbing Falster hospital serving Lolland-Falster, and diagnostic and dental practices across the region.
Companies in Zealand choose between three program tracks. Each draws on the same catalogue, and the right one depends on whether you want to introduce, distribute or resell.
The agent role is an introductory role. An agent identifies hospitals, clinics, distributors and procurement teams, presents them to MediGear, and leaves quotation, supply, documentation and fulfilment with the partnerships team. Since nothing is purchased and no inventory is retained, commercial exposure is eliminated, and remuneration follows confirmed sales as commission. Sales materials and product support are supplied continuously. Consultants and independent representatives familiar with purchasing group evaluation are the natural candidates. Agents in Zealand work the acute hospitals and the new-build projects across the island.
Distribution means holding a territory and working it. The agreed scope may be one province, two neighbouring provinces, a language community, or a single product group nationally, and the distributor represents MediGear across it while developing the local market. Stock is purchased at distributor level for onward supply. Exclusive and non-exclusive rights are both available, and the arrangement includes market development, commercial support, and regulatory and import coordination. A distributorship here covers the region, with the construction programme treated as a distinct opportunity.
Resellers purchase at wholesale and resell independently through an existing medical business, online store, sales network or customer base. Order quantities are flexible, and you sell on your own terms to your own customers. Resellers operate independently without territorial or official distribution rights, so there is no territorial commitment and no market development obligation. Resellers here run a medical supply business serving the region's hospitals and practices.
A partner here works a dispersed island region with several framework hospitals and a major new-build programme. Companies holding a Danish CVR number with a genuine route to healthcare buyers are eligible, and applications commonly come from:
Equipment distributors and importers already supplying hospitals around Sorø.
Independent sales agents with contacts in theatre, imaging, pathology or dental
Online medical supply businesses and e-commerce operators
Biomedical engineering firms adding equipment sales to service contracts
Practice fit-out, day surgery and healthcare project companies
Laboratory, dental and rehabilitation equipment resellers working across Zealand
Category experience outweighs turnover. A company that has supplied a department at one of the region's acute hospitals is a stronger applicant than a larger trader with no clinical record in the region.
A partner weighing up Zealand is working with the following.
| Regional seat | Sorø |
|---|---|
| Administrative tier | One of the 5 regions (regioner) of Denmark |
| Language of procurement documents | Danish |
| Principal institutional buyers | The acute hospitals at Roskilde, Køge, Næstved, Slagelse and Holbæk, the new Køge University Hospital as it comes on stream, the Nykøbing Falster hospital serving Lolland-Falster, and diagnostic and dental practices across the region. |
| Usual route for imported consignments | The region sits between the capital and the Fehmarn and Great Belt crossings, so imported consignments arrive overland from Copenhagen and directly across the fixed links. |
| National competent authority | Danish Medicines Agency (Lægemiddelstyrelsen) |
| Neighbouring partner territories | Capital Region and Southern Denmark |
Regional seat and regulator are fixed; commercial territory in Zealand is settled in the agreement. Partner coverage of the wider country is set out on the Denmark partner page.
Competitive margins. Partner-level commercial terms apply across the entire catalogue, with performance recognised for partners who achieve their agreed targets. Terms are confirmed in writing before the initial order is placed.
Full product catalogue. Partners quoting buyers around Sorø draw on one range: certified equipment across diagnostics, surgical and therapeutic, lab and pathology, sterilisation, hospital furniture, dental, ENT and ophthalmic, rehabilitation, orthopaedic, cardiology, gastroenterology, neonatal, dermatology, veterinary and spare parts.
Sourcing and quotation support. Submit an enquiry and the team sources the product, negotiates directly with the manufacturer and returns a documented quotation, including items outside the current catalogue. Partners around Sorø utilise it most frequently for departmental refits.
Direct partnerships team. Order queries, supplier negotiations, logistics coordination and after-sales issues go directly to the MediGear team by email, so a partner operating across Zealand can concentrate on selling rather than continually chasing suppliers.
Marketing support. Co-branded brochures, digital assets, product imagery and collaborative campaigns to position in front of institutional buyers across Zealand.
Regulatory support. Import guidance, certification documentation and connections to local regulatory consultants for registration questions raised by buyers around Sorø.
Regulation (EU) 2017/745 governs every medical device placed on the European market, setting classification, conformity assessment and post-market obligations that apply before any supply arrangement starts. Market surveillance, vigilance and coordination rest with the Danish Medicines Agency, whose guidance is published by the Danish Medicines Agency. Regional framework deals are written in Danish, and Danish-language labelling and instructions are expected for the devices supplied under them.
Distributors and importers must, under the Regulation, verify CE marking and the declaration of conformity, check that labelling and instructions are in Danish, keep traceability records and forward complaints. They register as economic operators with the Danish Medicines Agency, within the EU medical devices framework.
The region sits between the capital and the Fehmarn and Great Belt crossings, so imported consignments arrive overland from Copenhagen and directly across the fixed links. Goods from outside the customs union clear through the Danish customs authority under Union Customs Code procedures. MediGear is not the economic operator of record for partner products and does not give regulatory advice.
Apply online. Complete the MediGear partner application form, specifying your coverage across Zealand, your relevant experience and the particular track that interests you.
Discovery call. The partnerships team subsequently reviews the application and arranges a call to discuss objectives, the proportion of the territory you cover, and your established route to Danish buyers.
Agreement and onboarding. Countersign the partner agreement, which formally documents the territory you hold around Sorø, and subsequently complete the onboarding process.
Start earning. Begin selling, distributing or referring across Zealand while MediGear coordinates manufacturing, documentation and international freight.
A dispersed island region combining framework hospitals with a major new-build.
Diagnostic imaging. the Roskilde, Køge, and Næstved hospitals
Surgical and therapeutic. The new Køge University Hospital fit-out
Hospital furniture. Department refits across the new-build programme.
Emergency and resuscitation. The regional acute provision
Dental: the private practice network across the region
A partner who covers the acute network and the new-build works a market larger than any one hospital. Businesses buying rather than selling can use the MediGear buyer route, and manufacturers seeking distribution should look at the supplier program.
The construction programme is the primary consideration partners cite. Køge University Hospital and comparable capital projects equip entire departments simultaneously, and a partner positioned ahead of the tender captures work a latecomer cannot reach.
Lifecycle assessment constitutes the second consideration. Danish frameworks are evaluated on service, consumables and anticipated operating life as much as headline terms, and a partner who can model the entire lifespan of a device competes on the ground the buyer genuinely uses.
Multi-site coverage represents the third consideration. The region operates several acute hospitals rather than a single centre, and a partner able to service all of them commands a considerably broader market than one confined to an individual site.
This page is published for general business and information purposes and is not an offer of partnership. MediGear reviews all applications, and approval is not guaranteed. Any partnership that proceeds is governed by the written terms agreed between MediGear and the partner. Product availability, category coverage, territory arrangements, commercial terms and any commission or margin structure vary by application and may change. The regulatory information here is general information about the Danish framework and is not legal, regulatory or professional advice. Requirements under Regulation (EU) 2017/745, together with the economic-operator registration and Danish-language provisions administered by the Danish Medicines Agency, depend on the device, its classification and the role each party takes. Partner businesses in Zealand remain responsible for confirming what applies to their own products, and should obtain qualified regulatory, customs or legal advice where required.
Apply with your business details, the parts of Zealand you cover and the track that interests you. The MediGear partnerships team reviews every application and will come back to you to discuss it.
Any company holding a Danish CVR number with a genuine route to healthcare buyers can apply. Zealand is a dispersed region where a partner covering several acute hospitals and positioned for the Køge new-build reaches most of the demand. The eligible categories are listed above, and category experience counts for more than company size.
Three. Sales agents introduce hospitals, clinics, distributors and procurement teams and earn commission on confirmed sales without holding stock. Authorised distributors represent MediGear in an agreed territory, purchase at distributor level and develop the local market. Resellers buy at wholesale and resell independently through a business they already run, without territorial rights or commitments.
Nothing is charged to join. All three tracks are open to businesses in Zealand without registration fees, subscriptions or upfront payments. Distributors and resellers buy the products they go on to sell, and partners meet their own trading overheads, including local delivery, storage and any marketing they add to the supplied assets.
Agents earn commission on confirmed sales rather than a retainer. The rate depends on the product category, the order value and the volume you bring, and is confirmed in writing before you begin introducing buyers. Because agents hold no stock and carry no inventory risk, earnings simply follow completed orders.
It does considerably. A major new regional hospital equips entire departments within a compressed window, so a partner holding manufacturer documentation and lifecycle modelling before the framework tenders is positioned for work that a supplier arriving subsequently cannot reach. The catalogue remains identical to elsewhere; the timing and the fit-out scale are the distinguishing factors. Territory scope is agreed at the discovery call.
Exclusive territorial rights are available to qualified distributors able to demonstrate market reach, financial capability and alignment with MediGear standards, and are assessed case by case. Non-exclusive distribution is also offered and is more common for partners entering a new product category. A territory may be one province, a group of provinces, a language community, or national coverage of one product group.
Not quite. CE marking under Regulation (EU) 2017/745 is the entry requirement for the European market, but economic-operator registration with the Danish Medicines Agency and the Danish-language rules for labelling and instructions still apply. Each product is confirmed on its own before a quotation goes to a buyer.
Danish-language labelling and instructions for use are expected for devices supplied to users, and public tender documents usually state this explicitly. The precise scope depends on the device, its class and its intended user, so confirm the requirement for each product before bidding.
