Partner with MediGear in Singapore
Singapore combines a small domestic market with an outsized role as a regional distribution and clinical hub, so a partner here often sells into several countries at once. Regulatory standards are high, and enforcement is consistent.
MediGear is a UK-registered medical equipment distributor and B2B marketplace working with verified manufacturers and healthcare buyers in more than 80 countries. Its partner program opens that catalogue to Singaporean businesses selling into public healthcare cluster hospitals, private hospital groups, specialist medical centres, diagnostic laboratories and dental practices.
Partnership Opportunities for Singaporean Businesses
Three program tracks are open to Singaporean businesses. Different business models, the same catalogue behind them — the right one depends on how much of the transaction you want to own.
Become a MediGear Sales Agent
Agents introduce qualified hospitals, clinics, distributors and procurement teams to MediGear. The role focuses on generating opportunities and connecting buyers with the team; MediGear handles quotations, supply, documentation and fulfilment. Earnings are commission-based on confirmed sales; no purchasing or inventory is required, and sales materials and product support are provided. It suits consultants and independent representatives who understand how the public healthcare clusters and private groups each evaluate equipment.
Become an Authorised MediGear Distributor
Distributors represent MediGear in an agreed country, region or territory and actively develop the local market — the city state entirely, or a single product family. Products are purchased at distributor level for onward supply, and territorial rights may be exclusive or non-exclusive. Market development, commercial support, and regulatory and import coordination are included.
Become a MediGear Reseller
Resellers purchase at wholesale and resell independently through an existing medical business, online store, sales network or customer base. Order quantities are flexible, and you sell on your own terms to your own customers. Resellers operate independently without territorial or official distribution rights, so there is no territorial commitment and no market development obligation.
Who Can Become a MediGear Partner in Singapore?
The program is open to businesses registered with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority and a genuine route to healthcare buyers. Applications commonly come from:
-
Equipment distributors and importers already supplying public and private hospitals
-
Independent sales agents with contacts in theatre, imaging, pathology or dental
-
Online medical supply retailers and e-commerce operators
-
Biomedical engineering firms adding equipment sales to service contracts
-
Practice fit-out, day surgery and healthcare project companies
-
Specialist medical centre, dental and laboratory equipment resellers
Regional ambition is the differentiator. A small Singapore agency serving buyers across ASEAN is more valuable than a larger firm confined to the island.
What You Get as a MediGear Partner
Competitive margins. Partner-level commercial terms apply across the catalogue, with performance recognised for partners who hit agreed targets.
Full product catalogue. Certified equipment across diagnostics, surgical and therapeutic, lab and pathology, sterilisation, hospital furniture, dental, ENT and ophthalmic, rehabilitation, orthopaedic, cardiology, gastroenterology, neonatal, dermatology, veterinary and spare parts.
Sourcing and quotation support. Send an enquiry and the team sources the product, negotiates with the manufacturer and returns a documented quotation — including items outside the current catalogue.
Direct partnerships team. Order queries, supplier negotiations, logistics coordination, and after-sales issues go straight to the team by email, so you can focus on selling rather than chasing suppliers.
Marketing support. Co-branded brochures, digital assets, product imagery and joint campaigns you can put in front of Australian buyers.
Regulatory support. Country-specific import guidance, certification documentation and connections to local regulatory consultants for market entry questions.
Medical Equipment Supply and Regulation in Singapore
Medical devices are regulated by the Health Sciences Authority under the health products legislation, with devices classified from Class A to Class D and most requiring registration before supply. Requirements are published by the Health Sciences Authority.
A dealer licence is required to manufacture, import or supply devices, and the registrant must be a locally established entity. Lower-risk devices may be exempt from registration in defined circumstances, and approvals from recognised reference regulators support abridged evaluation routes. Trade support and standards guidance are published by Enterprise Singapore.
Import clearance is administered by Singapore Customs, with permits handled through the national trade platform alongside regulatory checks. MediGear is not the registrant for partner products or licence holder and does not give regulatory advice.

Why Singaporean Businesses Work with MediGear
Regional reach is the first advantage. A Singapore partner can serve Malaysian, Indonesian, Thai and Vietnamese buyers from one base. That changes what is worth stocking.
Second is catalogue reach. Cluster tenders are written broadly, and a supplier answering one line of a wide specification rarely progresses.
Evaluation speed is the third. Abridged routes reward complete manufacturer papers. Having them ready shortens the wait. A file that is already complete turns an abridged route into a genuine advantage rather than a theoretical one.
Disclaimer
This page is published for general business and information purposes and is not an offer of partnership. MediGear reviews all applications, and approval is not guaranteed. Any partnership that proceeds is governed by the written terms agreed between MediGear and the partner. Product availability, category coverage, territory arrangements, commercial terms and any commission or margin structure vary by application and may change. The regulatory information here is general information about the Singaporean framework and is not legal, regulatory or professional advice. Requirements under the health products legislation, administered by the Health Sciences Authority, including device registration and the dealer licence, depend on the device, its risk class, its intended purpose and the locally established registrant. Partner businesses remain responsible for confirming what applies to their own products, and should obtain qualified regulatory, customs or legal advice where required.

Frequently Asked Questions
The program is open to businesses registered with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority with a genuine route to healthcare buyers: equipment distributors and importers, independent sales agents, online medical supply retailers, biomedical engineering firms, healthcare project companies, and specialist centres, dental or laboratory resellers. Speciality experience carries more weight than company size.
Three. Sales agents introduce hospitals, clinics, distributors and procurement teams and earn commission on confirmed sales without holding stock. Authorised distributors represent MediGear in an agreed territory, purchase at distributor level and develop the local market. Resellers buy at wholesale and resell independently through a business they already run, without territorial rights or commitments.
No. Joining is free for Singaporean businesses. There are no registration charges, subscriptions or upfront payments required to become an agent, distributor or reseller. Distributors and resellers purchase the products they sell, and partners cover their own trading costs, such as local delivery, storage, and any marketing they run beyond the assets MediGear provides.
Agents earn commission on confirmed sales rather than a retainer. The rate depends on the product category, the order value and the volume you bring, and is confirmed in writing before you begin introducing buyers. Because agents hold no stock and carry no inventory risk, earnings follow completed orders.
Exclusive territorial rights are available to qualified distributors who can demonstrate market reach, financial capability and alignment with MediGear standards, assessed case by case. Non-exclusive distribution is also offered and is more common for partners entering a new category. In a market of this size, a territory is usually national, defined by product group rather than by geography.
Partners receive onboarding, product knowledge materials, regulatory guidance for their market, sales tools and co-branded marketing assets. The partnerships team handles order queries, supplier negotiations and logistics coordination, including certification and customs documentation for inbound consignments.
As a general rule, yes. Most devices must be registered with the Health Sciences Authority before supply, and a dealer licence is required to manufacture, import or supply them. Lower-risk devices may be exempt from registration in defined circumstances. MediGear is not the registrant for partner products, so confirm your own position with the authority.
Not on its own, but it helps. Approvals from recognised reference regulators support abridged evaluation routes and can shorten review substantially, while registration and the dealer licence remain separate requirements. Confirm the applicable route for each device class before quoting.
