Our History
1992: IMS began its story as an export human health supplier, which successfully supplied governments and hospitals across the Middle East, Europe & North Africa.
1997: Following this success, IMS entered the UK market after a visit to a local veterinary surgery with the family cat. This opened up a completely new opportunity for the company in the veterinary market.
2002: Within 5 years IMS became established as the number one consumables supplier to the veterinary market, supplying charities, corporate groups and independent surgeries across the UK.
2015: Over the past 6 years, IMS have worked incredibly closely with the NHS to develop and test products in line with their procurement and net zero strategy.
2020: IMS Euro now own a 32,000 square feet space with warehousing and office facilities, boasting a range of over 7500 products & a market-leading, ever-expanding range of eco-friendly medical products

From Our Family To Yours
We provide a great safe place to work
At IMS, we pride ourselves on our humble beginnings and creating a family-orientated business. This has resulted in substantial business growth, where our employees have grown and developed alongside the business. For over 30 years we have retained an incredibly low staff turnover, which means our current employees understand the business inside and out.
Practices to live our values on diversity, equity and inclusiveness
As an equal-opportunity employer, we recruit the best-qualified person for each role and have a zero-tolerance policy against discrimination. This is proven with the senior management team consisting of 50% empowered females across different departments. We encourage diverse fields of applicants when recruiting for all open roles to reflect the diversity of our communities. We benchmark compensation and gender equity internally across all sites and managerial levels to ensure equal pay for equal work.
Equality is everything within our family
IMS Euro is committed to upskilling its workforce and providing opportunities for promotion and increased pay. We are rolling out a new skills-pay matrix that recognises increments in wage rate based on gaining new skills. IMS Euro commits to ensuring that all similarly qualified employees have equal access and opportunity to all training and advancement facilities regardless of sex, gender, age or disability. No employee should be overlooked for training or promotion because of any protected characteristic.
