We are a team of professionals. Our senior partners all have proven track records. We do not believe in the generic one-fits-all approach, we do not want to be the next big-catalogue company. With different companies we focus on the different segments in the laboratory market. Each has determination and eagerness for success in common.

Many established instrument manufacturers have experienced that a worldwide direct sales force is not the best solution. The costs of local affiliates weigh heavily on their organizations. For new and upcoming players, the investments are too high and the local barriers too complex. For innovative suppliers in general, typical resellers and large catalogue companies will lack the scientific knowhow and focus in order to be successful.

A local partner willing to go the extra mile can offer the best of both worlds. We envisioned that, by delivering more than what is expected of a distributor, it is possible to become a true local sales and marketing partner for our suppliers. With sales and service engineers trained to the same level as a direct operation, both customers and suppliers win. For our instrumentation suppliers, a strong service team is an essential driver for success.For reagents and consumables, we can ensure next-day deliveries to our end users thanks to our centralized operations with local stock.

Serving laboratories worldwide, the companies of the Aptco Group strive to be such kind of distributor. Each with their own focus, each serving their specific markets, each with a strong local presence and character. For our suppliers, our mission is to be the best sales and marketing partner available in our region, bringing the word distributor to another level. For our customers, it is our mission to serve them with highest standards of product knowhow, understanding their needs and applications. Be it by offering the best service or by introducing innovative technologies that in the end will help them to advance their scientific work.
