What Best Medical does

Best Medical S.r.l. is an Italian value-added distributor and service provider of electromedical equipment, founded in 2012 by Francesco Rossini and Claudia and headquartered in Santarcangelo di Romagna (Emilia-Romagna) with a regional office in Calenzano (Tuscany). The company is the exclusive distributor of Samsung Healthcare ultrasound systems in Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany and the exclusive agency for DEKA Laser aesthetic and medical laser equipment in Emilia-Romagna, distributing premium imaging systems (Samsung RS85 Prestige, Hera Z20, V5/V6/V7/V8, HM70 EVO, plus certified pre-owned HS-series), aesthetic and surgical lasers (DEKA SmartXide² TRIO CO2, Discovery Pico Plus, Mediostar AX, AGAIN, Q-Plus C MT, Vivace RF microneedling, Schwarzy focused magnetic stimulation), and an OEM-compatible consumables and accessories catalog via a WooCommerce e-commerce shop.

The business operates a multi-channel distribution model combining a national network of commissioned commercial agents with trust-based relationships to medical professionals, two physical showrooms that host free equipment trials (with a third in preparation), and direct online sales of consumables. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales of new and certified pre-owned units, multi-year operating rentals and leases (6-72 months), purchase financing, official Samsung Healthcare technical service and maintenance contracts (including probe trade-in/permuta programs), and unit-priced consumables transactions. The company's core technology stack is the proprietary engineering of its principals rather than its own; Best Medical's value-add lies in certified distribution, territorial exclusivity, certified service-center capability, and relationship-based sales rather than in-house product development. Target customers are medical doctors, specialists, medical studios, aesthetic centers, and sub-distributors in Italy.

Revenue model

1. Equipment Sales (new and used): Best Medical sells new and certified pre-owned Samsung Healthcare ultrasound systems and DEKA Laser devices. The company offers trade-in/permuta programs where customers can exchange their existing equipment (even non-functioning probes) to reduce the upfront investment. Financing options are available for equipment purchases, enabling installment payments tailored to the medical professional's practice.
2. Equipment Rental / Operating Lease: Best Medical provides operational rental and leasing of Samsung Healthcare ultrasound systems (6 to 72 month terms) and DEKA Laser devices for medical studios and aesthetic centers. This enables flexibility without capital commitment, technology upgrades, and better cost management for the practitioner.
3. Equipment Financing: Financing solutions for the purchase of electromedical equipment, allowing medical professionals to spread payments over time rather than making full upfront purchases.
4. Technical Service and Maintenance: Best Medical operates as an official Samsung Healthcare service center for ultrasounds and probes, providing certified technical support, spare parts, probe trade-in (permuta) for regenerated or new probes, and maintenance contracts.
5. Consumables and Accessories (e-commerce): Online shop selling consumables including ultrasound gel, probe cleaning sprays, thermal paper, printer consumables, probe covers, and accessories for ultrasound systems and compatible devices. Revenue is generated through unit-priced transactions on the e-commerce platform.
