Eight new products to Navamedic's portfolio

Navamedic's wholly owned subsidiary Vitaflo Scandinavia has signed a distribution agreement with UK based Vitaflo International Ltd (Nestlé) for eight new nutritional products, expanding the portfolio to more than 65 pharmaceutical drugs and healthcare products.

The new products are all nutritional supplements used by patients with metabolic disorders. Most of these patients need lifelong treatment in order to adjust their metabolism.

The product expansion further strengthens Vitaflo's position in this segment and supports a continued high sales growth for the company.

Despite sharing the same name and a common origin, Vitaflo International (Nestlé) and Vitaflo Scandinavia are today two separate companies with different owners.

Navamedic's subsidiary Vitaflo Scandinavia is a Nordic distributor of more than 65 pharmaceutical drugs and health care products from more than 20 manufacturers. The company saw a 29 per cent sales growth in 2011 followed by a 22 per cent sales growth in the first quarter 2012.
