What CB Medical Inc does

CB Medical Inc is a privately held medical supplies distributor headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, operating since approximately 2004. The company distributes a multi-category catalog spanning ostomy, incontinence, urology, wound care, compression garments, custom surgical trays, custom IV setups, pharmaceuticals, and general medical supplies, carrying products from leading manufacturers including Hollister, ConvaTec, Coloplast, Sigvaris, Juzo, Jobst, Tena, Tranquility, and Abena. It serves two primary segments: home healthcare patients requiring personal-use supplies and physician clinical practices requiring bulk and customized medical solutions.

The business operates a cloud-based ordering portal and e-commerce storefront that provides access to thousands of medical products, supplemented by on-site, telephone, and remote consultation services. A specialty compression fitting service uses over 25 measurements and is staffed by personnel with more than 40 years of combined healthcare and medical product experience. Distribution relationships are in place with four Canadian government health programs (Alberta Aids to Daily Living, Indigenous Services Canada, Workers' Compensation Board Alberta, and Veterans Affairs Canada) and with the First Canadian Health network, providing institutional revenue diversification.

Revenue is generated through one-time product sales, with most products shipped same or next day across Canada. CB Medical also holds exclusive distribution for its own Dexterity-branded vinyl and nitrile gloves and distributes the Sphenocath migraine and pain management device. No external funding, M&A activity, management team roster, certifications, or financial figures are publicly disclosed in the available source material.
