Addressing Growing Health Care Market in Turkey

Swisslog and Simeks Announce Expansion of Partnership to Address Growing Health Care Market in Turkey

Swisslog strengthens its position in Turkey by expanding the partnership with Simeks to jointly supply complete solutions for medication management. 

ISTANBUL – Swisslog, the leading hospital automation solutions provider in material hand­ling and medication management, and Simeks, the leading provider of medical equipment and technological solutions for the global health care sector, announce an expansion of their partnership, where Simeks will start distributing the medication management solutions of Swisslog in Turkey, Turkmenistan, and northern Iraq. For many years, Simeks has been distributing the Swisslog material handling solutions, which has resulted in a market-leading position for the pneumatic tube systems. The expanded partnership will aim to also achieve this position in medication management solutions.

“Turkey is investing to further improve the health care system and to build a whole range of new, modern hospitals. The expanded partnership with Simeks allows Swisslog to build on the strong presence in this growing market on the bridge between Europe and Asia,” states Pieter Feenstra, Executive Vice President of Swisslog Healthcare Solutions. “The state-of-the-art medication management solutions of Swisslog combined with the strong local experti­se of Simeks make a very strong joint offering.”

 “The addition of the Swisslog medication management systems to our broad portfolio of best-in-class medical equipment and technology will allow us to offer complete and very innova-tive solutions that will enable the best patient experience possible,” said Bahar Sunman, board member of Simeks.

The partnership had an immediate fruitful start with the sales of a small, joint automated-pharmacy solution in northern Iraq. A number of larger opportunities in Turkey are currently being jointly worked on for both the private and public health care sectors.
