Orthopaedic and spine device distributors in Canada: 74 licensed establishments
The Bastion Hale Distributor Index lists 74 establishments in Canada whose registry records include orthopaedics, spine and trauma: 36 with a channel role (importer, distributor, wholesaler or authorised representative), 16 registration holders without a channel role, and 22 registered as manufacturer or exporter only, out of 2,745 medical device establishments in Canada overall. The records come from US FDA (openFDA) and Health Canada, last seen on 22 October 2026.
Orthopaedics covers implants for joints, spine and trauma, together with instruments and bone substitutes. Implants are usually Class IIb or III, so the importer or registration holder carries real regulatory work and hospitals often buy through tenders. Distributors in this segment tend to employ clinical support staff who attend surgery.

Who holds the registration in Canada
In Canada the device licence (MDALL) is held by the manufacturer, while importers and distributors need a Medical Device Establishment Licence (MDEL). The manufacturer keeps the product registration; the distributor's MDEL is its own and transfers nothing to it.
