Promedica is expanding to other countries!

In 2017, we entered the neighbouring market through the acquisition. There are currently three companies operating under our group in Slovakia. This summer we managed to sign an exclusive contract with our supplier Hitachi for other countries as well. Based on that, we have expanded the scope of our operations anew also into the Finnish and Hungarian markets and two more subsidiaries are currently starting operations under the PROMEDICA PRAHA GROUP’s flag, namely Promedica Healthcare Hungary and Promedica Healthcare Finland. There is a great potential in Finland to enter the markets in further Nordic countries. In spite of the Covid restrictions, life goes on and we have a desire as well as power to shape further the PROMEDICA story.
