Sale on Manual & Electric Hospital Beds - Starting from 25 September!
Alba pairs the historic capital of Alba Iulia with manufacturing in Sebeș and the Apuseni Mountains, served by one county emergency hospital.
Alba is home to roughly 326,000 people, according to the 2021 census. Acute cases go to the emergency hospital in Alba Iulia, while Aiud and Blaj keep smaller wards open. Engineering plants and automotive suppliers in Sebeș and Cugir add an industrial base.
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 businesses in Alba selling into the county emergency hospital, town hospitals in Aiud and Blaj, occupational health services at engineering plants, private clinics and dental practices.
Three program tracks are open to businesses in Alba. Different business models, the same catalogue behind them — the right one depends on how much of the transaction you want to own.
Agents introduce qualified hospitals, clinics, distributors and procurement teams to MediGear. The role focuses on generating opportunities and connecting buyers with the team; MediGear handles quotations, supply, documentation and fulfilment. Earnings are commission-based on confirmed sales; no purchasing or inventory is required, and MediGear provides sales materials and product support. From Alba Iulia, Sebeș is a twenty-minute journey, and Aiud is approximately thirty minutes away. Factory clinics want a hospital equipment supplier in Alba who responds quickly to breakdowns.
Distributors represent MediGear in an agreed country, region or territory and actively develop the local market — Alba Iulia with Sebeș, the Aiud and Blaj area, or county-wide coverage. Distributors purchase products for onward supply, and territorial rights may be exclusive or non-exclusive. Market development, commercial support, and regulatory and import coordination are included.
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.
The program is open to companies entered in the Romanian trade register with a genuine route to healthcare buyers. Applications commonly come from:
Equipment distributors and importers already supplying public and private hospitals
Independent sales agents with contacts in theatre, imaging, pathology or dental
Online medical supply stores and e-commerce operators
Biomedical engineering firms adding equipment sales to service contracts
Practice fit-out, day surgery and healthcare project companies
Dental, laboratory and rehabilitation equipment resellers
Industrial connections pay off here. Plant managers in Sebeș and Cugir prefer a medical equipment supplier in Alba who already understands shift work. Mountain communities in the Apuseni also depend on well-equipped rural clinics. Sfânta Maria clinics, a MedLife brand for patients insured through CAS, also operate in the county.
Competitive margins. Partner-level commercial terms apply across the catalogue, with performance recognised for partners who hit agreed targets.
Full product catalogue. 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. Send an enquiry and the team sources the product, negotiates with the manufacturer and returns a documented quotation — including items outside the current catalogue.
Direct partnerships team. Order queries, supplier negotiations, logistics coordination, and after-sales issues go straight to the team by email, so you can focus on selling rather than chasing suppliers.
Marketing support. Co-branded brochures, digital assets, product imagery and joint campaigns you can put in front of buyers in Alba.
Regulatory support. Country-specific import guidance, certification documentation and connections to local regulatory consultants for market entry questions.
Medical devices sold anywhere in the European Union fall under Regulation (EU) 2017/745, which fixes classification, conformity assessment and post-market duties before any supply arrangement begins. The national competent authority is the National Agency for Medicines and Medical Devices, which covers market surveillance, vigilance, and national registration; ANMDMR publishes its guidance.
Romania has its own national rules on top of these. Firms that handle devices must register. So must firms that install or service them. Labels and user guides are expected in Romanian. The EU medical devices framework sets out the broader structure.
The Romanian Customs Authority handles entry formalities for non-union goods under Union Customs Code procedures. MediGear is not the economic operator of record for partner products and does not give regulatory advice.

Ultrasound systems, patient monitors, and X-ray machines reach the county hospital through public tenders on SEAP. Plant clinics in the valley reorder medical devices and supplies in Alba whenever shifts change.
Running past Alba Iulia, the A1 motorway links the area with Sibiu and Deva. A Centre region emergency project, co-financed through EU regional funding, purchased additional ambulances and specialised first aid equipment.
Roșia Montană, inscribed by UNESCO in 2021, was added to the World Heritage in Danger list. Tourism infrastructure in the Apuseni villages increasingly requires emergency medical equipment at mountain rescue stations.
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 Romanian framework and is not legal, regulatory or professional advice. Requirements under Regulation (EU) 2017/745, and the national registration, service authorisation and language provisions administered by the National Agency for Medicines and Medical Devices, depend on the device, its classification and the role each party takes. Partner businesses 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 counties you cover and the track that interests you. The MediGear partnerships team reviews every application and will come back to you to discuss it.
The program is open to companies entered in the Romanian trade register with a genuine route to healthcare buyers in Alba: equipment distributors and importers, independent sales agents, online medical supply stores, biomedical engineering firms, practice fit-out companies, and dental, laboratory or rehabilitation resellers. Speciality experience carries more weight 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.
No. Joining is free for businesses in Alba. No registration charges, subscriptions, or upfront payments are required to become an agent, distributor, or reseller. Distributors and resellers purchase the products they sell, and partners arrange their own local delivery, storage, and any marketing beyond the assets MediGear provides.
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, they earn only on completed orders.
Exclusive territorial rights are available to qualified distributors who can demonstrate market reach, financial capability and alignment with MediGear standards, and are assessed case by case. We also offer non-exclusive distribution, which is more common for partners entering a new product category. Most demand is in the Mureș Valley, so a medical equipment distributor in Alba usually covers the area around Sebeș and Aiud.
Partners receive onboarding, product knowledge materials, regulatory guidance for their market, sales tools and co-branded marketing assets. The partnerships team handles order queries, supplier negotiations and logistics coordination, including certification and customs documentation for inbound consignments.
Romania requires economic operators handling medical devices, and those providing installation and maintenance services, to register or hold authorisation nationally, alongside the CE marking and conformity assessment required by Regulation (EU) 2017/745. MediGear is not the economic operator of record for partner products, so confirm your own duties with the agency.
Romanian-language labelling and instructions for use are expected for devices supplied to users, and tender documents make this a condition of award. The precise scope depends on the device, its class and its intended user, so confirm the requirement for each product before bidding.
