Gastroenterology and urology device distributors in France: 58 licensed establishments
The Bastion Hale Distributor Index lists 58 establishments in France whose registry records include gastroenterology, urology and ob/gyn: 22 with a channel role (importer, distributor, wholesaler or authorised representative), 2 registration holders without a channel role, and 34 registered as manufacturer or exporter only, out of 2,670 medical device establishments in France overall. The records come from US FDA (openFDA), EUDAMED, Health Canada and web, last seen on 23 October 2026.
Gastroenterology, urology and obstetrics covers flexible endoscopy accessories, lithotripsy, dialysis, catheters and women's health devices. Dialysis consumables bring large recurring volumes and a few dominant players. The rest of the segment is spread across many mid-sized importers.
By role
| Role | Establishments | Share | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Importer | 18 | 31% | Named as importer in a registry: EUDAMED importer, FDA initial importer, or a Gulf import licence. |
| Distributor | 3 | 5% | Holds a distribution licence or is listed as distributor (Health Canada MDEL, SFDA, Oman MOH). |
| Authorised representative | 6 | 10% | Represents a foreign manufacturer towards the regulator (EU authorised representative and similar). |
| Registration holder | 8 | 14% | Holds device licences or registrations in its own name (Health Canada MDALL licence holder). |
| Manufacturer | 49 | 84% | Registered as a manufacturer with an address in this market, including foreign registrations. |
| Exporter | 13 | 22% | Registered with the US FDA as an exporter of devices made for export. |
An establishment can hold several roles, so the shares add to more than 100%.
Who holds the registration in France
In the EU and EEA the manufacturer, or its EU authorised representative for manufacturers based outside the EU, registers in EUDAMED and holds the CE marking file. Importers and distributors register separately as economic operators and never own the registration, which is why EU channel changes are easier than elsewhere.
