In the Netherlands, CGM is mainly active in two markets: pharmacies and general practitioners. The local team consists of about 160 people spread across locations in Echt and Zoetermeer. In recent years, CGM has acquired Qualizorg and Portavita to expand their offerings and strengthen their proposition.

To regain its lead, the company is investing heavily in upgrading its proposition to adapt to changes in the market. CGM is, among other things, implementing a customer-first approach, developing new functionalities, merging the three local entities to form one organization that can leverage its synergies, and rebranding all products and services under the CGM label. With this strategy, CGM is confident it can reconnect with its customers and get back on top.
