Medical Vision AG acquires majority shareholding in Galifa Contactlinsen AG

Regulated succession

Christian Krüsi, the former long-standing Managing Director of Galifa Contactlinsen AG, who has sold his majority stake in the long-established Eastern Swiss company to Medical Vision AG - a company with an equally rich tradition in Eastern Switzerland - is delighted: "I am delighted to have found a partner in Medical Vision AG with whom Galifa Contactlinsen AG - my life's work - is in good hands. The Medical Vision Group has all the resources to make Galifa even more fit for the future."

Galifa Contactlinsen AG will continue to operate at its existing location as an independent company within the Medical Vision Group. The high level of expertise, product quality and outstanding contact lens production of Galifa Contactlinsen AG expands the existing portfolio of companies within the Medical Vision Group and opens up new opportunities for optimal customer care and new services.

Added value in customer service and market presence

A particular advantage of this cooperation lies in the area of customer care. The subsidiaries of Medical Vision AG, in particular Mediconsult AG and Pharma Medica AG, already serve customers in the same segment as Galifa Contactlinsen AG. The cooperation within the Medical Vision Group will make the market presence more efficient and provide customers with an even broader and integrated range of high-quality products and services.

New possibilities by combining diagnostics and production

The combination of Galifa Contactlinsen AG's strengths in manufacturing and Medical Vision AG's expertise in diagnostics opens up new possibilities. The collaboration enables the optimization of important process steps such as ordering, fitting and individual production of contact lenses.

The companies are very confident about their joint future and look forward to ensuring sustainable corporate growth through the merger.
