Are you ready to establish and grow a leading consumer health brand in Italy?
Medisana is developing, promoting and distributing products in the categories of mobile health, health control, wellness, body care, therapy and healthy home for health-conscious consumers worldwide. With a well-established presence in several European markets, we are now looking to expand our footprint in Italy.
