Mid Europa forges ahead with its consolidation plans for the laboratories industry in Central Europe with the recent SBO of Alpha Medical, a Polish lab network formerly owned by Penta Investments.
The deal involves a 100 per cent stake sale by Penta, and adds to Mid
Europa’s medical laboratory portfolio, currently consisting of a
majority stake in Diagnostyka (which was completed using the MEF III in
February 2011) and a similar deal for the acquisition of Teresa Fryda
Laboratory later in 2011. Alpha Medical operates 43 labs in Slovakia,
Poland and the Czech Republic, and claims to be conducting over 30 mln
tests annually. Founded in 1997, the group was acquired by Penta in
2006. Headquarters are located in Bratislava, and the group employs 820
people across all its branches.
