Biofast Healthcare Supplies

What Biofast Healthcare Supplies does

Biofast Healthcare Supplies is an Australian-owned, privately held e-commerce distributor of medical equipment, supplies, and consumables, headquartered at 12B Bass Court, Keysborough, Victoria. It sells direct to hospitals, aged care centres, clinics, pharmacies, and individual healthcare professionals across Australia, with nationwide shipping and free metro delivery on orders over A$199, plus Click & Collect from its Melbourne warehouse. The catalog spans diagnostic equipment, wound care, infusion and injection products, disposables and protective wear, mobility aids, hospital furniture and fittings, nutritional supplements, baby care, and biodegradable products.

The company operates as a multi-brand distribution platform rather than a manufacturer, carrying products from 100+ principals including 3M, BD, Smith & Nephew, Hartmann (MoliCare), Mölnlycke, Convatec, Halyard, Medicom, Omron, Nestle Health Science, B. Braun, and Baxter. Underlying technology consists of TGA-registered Class 1 medical devices (e.g., TGC Microlite nitrile gloves) and hospital-grade disinfectants meeting Therapeutic Goods Administration standards, sold through a standard BigCommerce storefront with account management, wishlists, and secure payment processing.

The revenue model is transactional: direct-to-consumer online sales via biofast.com.au on a pay-as-you-go basis, with unit pricing ranging from approximately A$5 for low-cost consumables to A$4,895 for capital equipment, plus bulk discounts (e.g., 5% off 100+ boxes of gloves) and an explicit Best Price Guarantee. No financial, headcount, or ownership disclosures are available; the company appears independently operated with no parent, no disclosed funding rounds, and no M&A activity on record.

Broad incumbents

Regional players

• B. Braun Australia: Australian subsidiary of B. Braun, a global medical device and pharmaceutical company with direct infusion, surgical, and wound care product distribution. Comparable in infusion and IV product lines, though B. Braun is primarily a manufacturer with direct sales force rather than a multi-brand e-commerce distributor like Biofast.
