Patient information kits, healthcare staff uniforms, event and HCP programme merch for public hospitals and clinical centres in Belgrade, Novi Sad, Niš and Kragujevac, private clinics in Belgrade and Novi Sad, pharma companies and MedTech manufacturers — produced in Belgrade and Novi Sad, billed with PDV 20% in RSD.
The Serbian healthcare system combines a public hospital network (Klinički centar Srbije in Belgrade, KC Vojvodine in Novi Sad, KC Niš, KC Kragujevac and the network of opšte bolnice and specijalne bolnice across the country) with a growing private hospital and clinic sector (Acibadem, Euromedikhs, Stomatološka klinika, MediGroup, Atlas General Hospital and the fertility/IVF tier), pharma companies (Hemofarm, Galenika, PharmaSwiss, MSD, Roche, Novartis, Sanofi and the local generics), and MedTech manufacturers and distributors.
Merch programmes in the healthcare sector split into three recurring workstreams. The first is patient information and education kits — branded tote bags, folders, leaflets and water bottles handed to patients at the public-hospital outpatient desk, the maternal-and-child health centre, the vaccination point or the screening programme. The second is healthcare-staff (HCP) uniform programmes for public and private providers — branded scrubs, lab coats, lanyards, badge holders, name tags, ID holders, tote bags for the daily commute.
The third is pharma and MedTech event programmes — medical conferences (Srpsko lekarsko društvo events, ULUS annual, the regional cardiology and oncology congresses), product launches at Hotel Hyatt or Crowne Plaza Belgrade, sponsor booths at the Beogradski sajam medical days, and patient-advocacy programmes run by the pharma-tier marketing team. Each sub-programme has its own audience tier (specialist, GP, patient, nurse, hospital administrator) and its own compliance envelope.
Tote bag (cotton or non-woven), A4 folder, water bottle, small hardgood (lip balm, hand sanitiser 50 ml, keychain) — printed in the hospital or programme's colour set, bilingual (Serbian Cyrillic + English) for the international patient tier, single-language for domestic programmes. Production runs from Belgrade with OEKO-TEX 100 documentation on every blank.
Branded scrubs (unisex 50/50 poly-cotton), lab coats (65/35 poly-cotton with silkscreen or embroidery on the chest), lanyards with breakaway clasp, badge holders, name tags, ID holders — produced in the hospital's colour set and visual identity, with embroidered or silkscreened logo, and Pantone-matched to the hospital's brand book. Stock-blank-led with the PO held at the hospital's warehouse.
Attendee bag, lanyard, badge holder, branded notebook, pen, water bottle, printed programme — produced for medical congresses at Sava Centar, Kombank Dvorana, Hyatt or Crowne Plaza Belgrade, the Niš and Novi Sad congress centres, with bilingual packs (Serbian + English) for specialist and pharma-tier events. Lead time three to four weeks including artwork and Pantone match.
High-volume giveaways (lanyards, tote bags, notebooks, pens, small hardgoods) for the sponsor booths at the Beogradski sajam medical days and the regional cardiology and oncology congresses. Production runs consolidated for the medical-conference calendar with capacity at our Belgrade and Novi Sad partners for the spring and autumn congress seasons.
Healthcare merch in Serbia sits inside several overlapping compliance frames: ALIMS (Agencija za lekove i medicinska sredstva Srbije) for any product that touches regulated health claims; the Ministry of Health's framework for public-hospital procurement; the Law on Advertising for any branded patient-facing material; and the pharma industry's self-regulatory code (IPHA Serbia) for HCP gifts and sponsor activities.
We work to the brief the hospital or pharma team sets. For pharma sponsor booths, the gift items are utility-grade (tote, notebook, pen) and avoid anything that resembles a personal gift. For HCP events, the gifts are utility-grade and disclosed in the event-congress programme. For public-hospital programmes, the gifts are utility-grade and aligned with the hospital's procurement rules. We do not market exclusivity deals or "preferred-supplier" status in healthcare — we run the merch programme as a standard supply contract.
MedTech imports from EU, US and Swiss manufacturers follow the EU SAA preferential regime with EUR.1 movement certificate for EU goods, and standard customs treatment with PDV 20% on the customs value plus duty for non-EU goods. We do not handle regulated health claims or ALIMS-facing documentation for the products themselves — we hand off the merch to the MedTech distributor or pharma logistics partner for ALIMS-facing clearance.
Indicative Belgrade-and-Novi-Sad production pricing for the standard healthcare tiers. Per-piece cost, decoration included, before PDV 20%. The ranges reflect current stock blanks, standard decoration and standard production slots; custom blanks or premium positioning pushes the per-piece price above the range.
For pharma sponsor booths at the medical-conference calendar we typically run a 200-unit pilot to confirm Pantone match and the on-site logistics before scaling to the campaign volume. The pilot accepts the medical-society compliance team for sample review.
For patient information kits and public-hospital programmes, the realistic lead time is three to four weeks from artwork sign-off; for HCP uniform programmes with embroidery, four to six weeks including the uniform sizing run; for medical-conference kits, three to four weeks; for sponsor-booth giveaways at high volume, four to six weeks including silkscreen production.
For medical conferences at Sava Centar and Kombank Dvorana we book the freight slot on the medical-society's behalf 7–10 business days ahead for standard freight and longer for large or complex consignments. For hotel-venue conferences (Hyatt Belgrade, Crowne Plaza, Saint Ten, Square Nine) the freight slot is usually arranged with the hotel's events team 3–5 business days ahead.
Currency and payment are quoted in RSD by default with EUR conversion on the invoice at the NBS middle rate on the day of issue. Public-hospital clients that invoice through the RFZO (Republički fond za zdravstveno osiguranje) framework use the standard public-sector 30/70 milestone structure with net-60 settlement; private clinics and pharma clients typically use 30/70 or 50/50 with net-30 settlement.
Most Serbian healthcare clients engage us through their marketing or communications team (for pharma and MedTech), their procurement office (for public hospitals and the RFZO framework), or their clinical director's office (for HGP uniform and patient-information programmes). The merch programme usually sits with the marketing lead for events, with the clinical director's office for HGP uniform, and with the procurement office for the public-hospital framework.
We run the project from our Belgrade office with weekly status calls and a shared folder for artwork, proofs, qualification documents and shipping records. The on-site contact at the venue is usually the medical-society's events manager, the hospital's communications lead, or the pharma marketing lead. The merch handover is signed by a named consignee against a packing list.
We do not promise preferred-supplier status, exclusivity or marketing partnership in healthcare. What we promise is the merch programme delivered on specification, with the qualification documents attached, billed to the public-hospital or PO line and reconciled against the PDV treatment the buyer's procurement office has named.
No — ALIMS clearance is the responsibility of the MedTech distributor or pharma logistics partner. We hand off the merch programme for ALIMS-facing clearance where the items cross into regulated territory, and we limit our scope to the merch and event-kit items themselves.
Yes — we work from the hospital's brand book and match Pantone within ±2 dE typical tolerance, with a physical or production-grade sample approved before the bulk run. Embroidery or silkscreen on the chest is the standard decoration.
Four to six weeks including embroidery, with the uniform sizing run absorbed into the lead time. For larger programmes (500+ pieces) we run a sizing pilot at one department and scale the measurement to the rest of the order.
