HONG KONG, Nov. 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- DKSH Business Unit Healthcare, Asia's leading Market Expansion Services specialist for healthcare companies seeking to grow their business in Asia, has been awarded by A.S. Watson Group, one of the largest health, beauty and lifestyle retailers in Hong Kong, as "Best Distributor". In addition, both Hisamitsu and Hiruscar received the Diamond Award and the Hartmann Group received the Silver Award. All brands are carried by DKSH in Hong Kong.

Hisamitsu's Salonsip Gel Patch, a water-contained pain relieving gel-patch, was awarded a Diamond Award (Bone & Joint Category). This is the fourth continuous year for the Japanese company to win such an award. It has been a great compliment to the Hisamitsu team given the growing competition in the sector.

Hiruscar Gel, a clear, fast absorbing gel that starts working immediately to reduce the appearance of scars, bagged another year of the Diamond Award (Scar Care Category). Hiruscar has been highly appreciated by users and a recent marketing campaign reinforced its leadership position in the market.

Tensoval Comfort, a reliable blood pressure monitor for the upper arm of German-based Hartmann Group, received a Silver Award (Blood Pressure Monitor Category). Its accuracy and easy-to-handle mechanism is well-appreciated by users worldwide.

"It is a great honor for DKSH to be awarded as the best distributor in Hong Kong. Congratulations also to Hisamitsu, Hiruscar and the Hartmann Group. These awards are a strong encouragement for our teams. Their commitment and hard work in the past year paid off. It shows how we bring our values to our clients and reflects our passion in what we do," said Grace Lau, Vice President, Business Unit Healthcare, DKSH Hong Kong.
