Centro Auditivo Telex em Saúde

What Centro Auditivo Telex em Saúde does

Centro Auditivo Telex SA, doing business as Centro Auditivo Telex em Saúde, is a privately held Brazilian hearing care center headquartered at Av. Rio Branco, 147 in Rio de Janeiro, employing 47 people. The entity operates as the official Brazilian representative and contact point for Oticon A/S, a hearing aid manufacturer owned by Denmark-based Demant Group, distributing Oticon hearing aids, accessories, and related products to end consumers in Brazil under the oticon.com.br domain. It is not a manufacturer itself; its commercial role is distribution, retail, and customer service for the Oticon brand locally.

The product portfolio distributed in Brazil spans adult hearing aids (Oticon Intent with 4D Sensor Technology, Oticon Real with BrainHearing), pediatric hearing aids (Oticon Play PX featuring an embedded Deep Neural Network, Oticon Play SI, Oticon Xceed Play for severe-to-profound loss), the Oticon Companion mobile application, and a suite of wireless accessories including EduMic, ConnectClip, TV Adapter 3.0, Remote Control 3.0, Easy LE Adapter, and Phone Adapter. Underlying technology is anchored by Oticon's proprietary BrainHearing platform, which provides access to the complete sound scene to reduce listening effort, and by the Eriksholm Research Centre, Oticon's independent audiology research facility.

The business model is a single-supplier exclusive distribution arrangement: revenue mechanics are tied to sales of Oticon-branded hardware, accessories, and supporting clinical services in Brazil, with no disclosed pricing model, ARR, or revenue figures in the source data (revenue source_id empty). Customer acquisition occurs through the oticon.com.br digital channel and the Rio de Janeiro office, supplemented by active social media profiles on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube under the OticonBrazil brand. No management team, funding rounds, M&A activity, or regulatory actions are disclosed for the entity itself, leaving the local commercial performance materially dependent on the upstream Oticon/Demant product roadmap.

Recent moves1 record

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• GN Hearing (ReSound, Beltone): Hearing aid manufacturer (ReSound, Beltone, Jabra Enhance) distributing premium hearing aids globally, including Brazil. Comparable as a direct competitor brand also relying on local distribution and audiology partners to reach Brazilian end customers.
• Demant A/S: Parent company of Oticon; a top-3 global hearing healthcare group. Comparable because Demant owns the Oticon brand and product roadmap that Centro Auditivo Telex distributes in Brazil; relevant for parent-level partnership dynamics and strategy.
• Amplifon: Global leader in hearing care retail and audiology services with extensive retail/clinic networks. Directly comparable as a hearing aid retailer/distributor; operates in Brazil and many other countries, often as a multi-brand retailer competing for the same end customer as Centro Auditivo Telex.
• Sonova (Phonak): Global hearing aid manufacturer (Phonak, Unitron) with its own retail and distribution presence in Brazil. Comparable because it sells competing premium hearing aids through Brazilian clinics and is one of Oticon's main global rivals; both compete for the same audiologist recommendation.
• WS Audiology (Widex, Signia): Hearing aid manufacturer formed from the merger of Widex and Sivantos (Signia, Rexton). Comparable as a competing global hearing aid brand distributed in Brazil through local partners, competing head-to-head with Oticon's premium positioning.
• Starkey Hearing Technologies: US-based hearing aid manufacturer with global distribution. Comparable as a competing premium hearing aid brand (including pediatric lines) sold through Brazilian audiology networks and clinics.

Direct peers

• Miracle-Ear: Large North American hearing aid retail chain distributing premium hearing aids through owned and franchised centers. Comparable as a hearing care retailer that depends on a global supplier brand and provides fitting, follow-up, and accessory services.
• Beltone: Hearing aid retailer and manufacturer with a franchise-style distribution model in the Americas. Comparable as a hearing care retailer/distributor using a global brand to serve local end customers, similar to Centro Auditivo Telex's relationship with Oticon.

Regional players

• AudioClin: Brazilian audiology/hearing aid retail chain offering hearing assessments, fittings, and hearing aid sales. Comparable as a regional Brazilian peer in the same retail-audiology category competing for similar customers.
• Centro Auditivo Direito de Ouvir: Brazilian hearing aid retail/audiology center. Comparable as a domestic Brazilian peer competing for the same end customer base in the Brazilian hearing aid market. (Publicly discoverable Brazilian hearing center; root domain not confidently known.)
