Navamedic signs distribution agreement
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Navamedic has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with the German
pharmaceutical company Pohl-Boskamp for its new head lice remedy NYDA.
(Oslo, 6 December 2010) The agreement with Pohl-Boskamp opens another market for
Navamedic's fully owned subsidiary Vitaflo Scandinavia. Through the agreement
Vitaflo Scandinavia will gain the exclusive right to distribute the new and
unique head lice remedy NYDA in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. The market for head
lice in these countries is estimated to be worth approximately SEK 18 million
per year.
"We welcome the distribution agreement and register a growth in the demand for
these types of products. NYDA is recommended by the Swedish pharmaceutical
authority (Legemiddelverket) which we believe is an important reassurance for
the consumers," said Olof Milveden, CEO of Navamedic.
NYDA is a completely new head lice remedy. The active ingredients in the product
penetrate the airways of both the lice and its eggs and cause suffocation. If
used as prescribed, users will get rid of all lice with one treatment. NYDA is a
mild product and is suitable for children from the age of two.
Pohl-Boskamp is a German pharmaceutical company with a long history and track
record. It is known for its dedication to health promoting activities and
quality in manufacturing pharmaceutical products and medical equipment since
1835. Pohl-Boskamp's products are sold in 45 countries.
This agreement is one in a series of recent deals for Navamedic and illustrates
the company's growth strategy. Earlier this year, Navamedic signed an exclusive
agreement with the Norwegian company Smartfish for the distribution of its
products within Medical Nutrition in Sweden, Denmark and Finland. Navamedic has
also signed an exclusive agreement with Aspen Healthcare giving Navamedic the
right to market Aspens products in Norway and the Benelux countries. Aspen is
one o the world's largest producer of generic products.
