Medical Distributor Search in Korea

Though not the largest medical market in Asia, Korea's medical market is an important destination for foreign firms, with an estimated pharmaceutical market of $10 billion and a medical device market of $3 billion in 2008. The Korean culture makes doing business there very distinct from other Asian countries. Locating the right Korean medical distributor with product area expertise and connections with key buyers can also be challenging.
