Established in 1945, Genia is the French leading manufacturer of equipment for animal health professionals (veterinarians, breeders, pharmaceuticals companies). Our company manufactures and distributes a wide range of products including syringes, needles, e-collars, bandages, suture material, and many others.
The company employs +60 people in France and generated in 2021 a turnover of 18 million EUR: 35% is made outside France in 70 countries, including Germany, one of the main European markets for the company.
In 2019 we already hired a German sales representative in Nordrhein-Westfalen. This gave us a solid experience about all aspects of the veterinary equipment business in Germany and helped us promoting and selling our products, by visiting veterinary clinics within this country.
Our commercial development project in Germany has taken a new dimension this year with the recruitment of a sales manager, and the creation of a dedicated legal structure (GmbH).
We now aim to strengthen our sales team with the recruitment of a new sales delegate based in Berlin and mobile throughout northern Germany.
