Roeser Medical Group is a German trading and service company in the healthcare sector. The company is a leading German distributor of medical supplies to hospitals. [1] [2]
Roeser Medical was founded by Leonhard Hermann Josef Roeser in Essen in 1918. [3] Starting as a prosthesis manufacturer for World War I invalids, [4] Roeser's sons Reiner and Leonhard expanded into the field of medical engineering. By 1969, the company supported about 30 hospitals in the Ruhr region.
From 1995, the company turned into a service provider focused on consulting, logistics and procurement services. [5] In 1999, Roeser and two other companies, Westmed ( Duisburg) and Lukas ( Münster) merged into Roeser Medical GmbH Co. KG. In November 2004, MWB Medizintechnik ( Bremen), was taken over. Further acquisitions include MWB Medizintechnik in November 2004 as well as EHS Medizintechnik [6] and Klingenfuss [7] in January 2012. In May 2017, German private hospital group Sana Kliniken AG announced to take over Roeser Medical [8] [9] [10] from the Swedish private equity group EQT AB, who had owned Roeser since 2010. [11]
The company moved its headquarters from Mülheim an der Ruhr to Bochum in 2009, [12] where it took over the former Nokia halls. [13] In 2015, it moved back to Essen. [14]
