Sheffield-based B.Braun Medical has defended its position as the fastest growing major healthcare organisation in the UK with reported sales topping £100m for the first time.
The UK arm of the global healthcare giant B.Braun has seen sales leap by 30% during the 2008/09 financial year with all divisions of the company contributing. The company is reaping the rewards from a two-pronged growth strategy of targeted acquisitions and expanding its portfolio of health care products, therapies and services.
hief executive officer, Hans Hux, commented: “Innovation has been the engine of growth. Last year, 56% of sales were generated from products and services introduced in the last five years, such as our state-of-the-art Orthopilot computer navigation system for total knee replacement.”
