What Rehapoint does

Rehapoint, Lda is a Portuguese specialty distributor of configurable medical devices and assistive equipment founded in 2012 and headquartered in Porto with a regional sales office in Lisbon. The company imports and distributes wheelchairs (manual, electric, dynamic, and standing), modular positioning systems, pediatric equipment, car seats, bathing and hygiene aids, and accessibility accessories sourced from 14 countries through exclusive agreements with 26 international suppliers representing 29 specialist brands, including Ki Mobility, Spex, TA iQ, Levo, R82, Hernik, and Sunrise Medical. Its product portfolio features configurable medical technology such as the Spex Constructa modular cushion system with positioning blocks for asymmetry correction, the Focus CR rotational tilt wheelchair with dual-rotation-center guides, and the TA iQ FWD Stand-Up powered wheelchair with biomechanical compensation and four-wheel individual suspension.

Rehapoint generates revenue primarily through hardware sales of imported assistive devices, supplemented by free technical assessment and clinical configuration services that drive product specification. The go-to-market is an enterprise and clinical field-sales model: specialized technicians and in-house occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and orthotists conduct free pre-purchase assessments to configure equipment to individual user needs, then deliver nationwide through the Porto headquarters and Lisbon regional office. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, and a meaningful share of demand is funded through Portugal's National Health System channels (ISS, IEFP, ACSS, DGE) alongside private individual buyers and institutional customers such as rehabilitation centers and hospitals. The company holds INFARMED wholesale medical device distribution certification (Certificate No. 191/DM/2019/V01/2019) and has received consecutive IAPMEI PME Excellence and Excelência awards between 2018 and 2025.

The business has scaled organically over more than a decade, accumulating 18,000+ equipment units delivered and 26,000+ technical assessments conducted across 12,000+ clients. Rehapoint remains a privately-held Portuguese limited company with no disclosed external investors, parent entity, or M&A activity; expansion to date has been driven by adding exclusive supplier partnerships, hiring clinical staff, opening the Lisbon office, and launching new categories such as the iBot multifunctional wheelchair in 2023. Its competitive position rests on a dense portfolio of exclusive brand partnerships, regulatory authorization to distribute medical devices, and a multidisciplinary clinical team that competitors would need to replicate to disintermediate it in Portugal.
