Medical and laboratory equipment

High labour costs force manufacturers in the EU to increasingly shift production to developing countries, which is also reflected in the import figures. This shift partly takes the form of outsourcing. The process of outsourcing together with stringent market access requirements, imply that the best opportunities for developing countries are in the following areas: contract manufacturing, private label manufacturing, subcontracting,  assembling and sterilising. Particularly for higher value products, cooperation with a European partner is essential.
