Quick Answer
B2B medical procurement in Bangladesh works through written quotations, bulk discounts of 8–30%, credit terms of 30–90 days and supply contracts. Hospitals should verify DGDA registration on every product, demand installation and staff training, and lock in spare-part and AMC commitments.

How institutional pricing works in Bangladesh
B2B buyers in Bangladesh typically receive 8–30% off listed prices depending on order value and contract terms. Institutional pricing usually includes: written quotations, dedicated account management, priority processing, free installation on equipment, and credit terms of 30–90 days for registered institutions. Retail pricing rarely includes these — that is the core value of B2B procurement.
The procurement checklist for hospitals and clinics
Before signing a supply agreement, verify: DGDA registration certificates for regulated products, manufacturer authorisation letters, written warranty and AMC terms, spare-part availability, and a delivery schedule. For reagents, add cold-chain documentation and batch traceability. Keep every certificate on file — inspectors routinely ask for them.
