Show profile Hide profileFountain Medical was established in 1983 by Hilton Webber, and was from that time involved in the provision of products and services to hospital and clinical markets.
During the 1990's Fountain Medical won various State contracts for the supply of infant incubators and related equipment. Although initial product was imported, this led to the establishment of a local manufacturing facility in a joint venture with an associate local company. After several years, this facility was sold to the JV partner, but Fountain Medical retains it's interest and involvement in the hospital and clinical markets.
Fountain Medical's contract with the state extended to the provision of breastfeeding products. This led to entry into consumer markets as a distributor of breastfeeding and later mother-and-baby consumer products in general.
Today the business is dominated by the mother-and-baby and clinical infant markets.
Fountain Medical is largely regarded as the market leader within the market segment of "mother and baby - infant feeding", and is widely recognised as being innovative, highly service oriented, with a high level of expertise both at product and consumer support levels.
Within the "infant care - clinical" segment Fountain Medical enjoys excellent acceptance, especially in the area of infant feeding and breastfeeding, where a very high profile and presence is maintained.
The strategic focus of Fountain Medical is best summarised as follows:
• Mother and Baby markets
• Consumer and Clinical markets
• A niche marketing approach focussing on premium brand products
