Northern Europe's largest distributor of dental supplies, Plandent Division, expands its business into the rapidly growing Russian market. Plandent Oy has acquired 51% of the share capital of the dental supply company Firm Medexpress Company Limited based in St. Petersburg. The current Medexpress management, Mr. Dmitry Pavluhin and Mrs. Svetlana Pavluhina, hold 49% of the shares and will continue in their existing roles.

The goal is to gain a strong foothold in the dynamic St. Petersburg market region. “We believe that Plandent’s strong expertise in dental supplies and services combined with Medexpress’s long experience in the Russian dental market will open completely new possibilities. Planmeca has already had a strong position in Russia for years and our high-tech dental devices are very well known there. With this new cooperation, we can now also offer Plandent's attractive service concepts to Russian customers and further strengthen the sales of our Planmeca equipment”, says Mr Tuomas Lokki, Vice President at Planmeca Group.

In February, the fast-growing Plandent Division acquired a new distribution company also in Belgium. In addition, the company has local companies in all the Nordic and Baltic countries as well as in the Netherlands, Germany, England, and Austria. The Plandent Division provides dental care professionals with the most comprehensive all-in-one solutions and services ranging from advanced Planmeca dental equipment and software to a full variety of dental supplies and devices from leading manufacturers.
