GO International Grant Program

Support for the Internationalization Efforts of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Bavaria: “Go International”

From Regional Strength to an International Perspective

What began as a small trading company has evolved in recent years into an established hygiene wholesaler that reliably supplies high-quality products to facilities in the care, medical, laboratory, food service, and cleaning sectors.

With rising demand and a continuously expanding product range, it became clear that our company has the structures, expertise, and quality standards needed to reach new customers beyond our national borders in the future. Participation in the Free State of Bavaria’s GO International support program helps us prepare for this strategic step in a targeted manner, implement it professionally, and develop it sustainably.

Goals of Our Internationalization Project

Our project is based on clearly defined areas of development and aims to raise the profile of the Altruan brand in international markets and establish it for the long term:

Market Development:
Identifying, analyzing, and targeting new markets in Europe, as well as developing tailored sales and communication strategies.
Digital Marketing & International Branding:
Building a multilingual online presence, implementing international SEO optimizations, and creating market- and product-specific informational and marketing materials.

Lasting Impact for Businesses and the Region

The international expansion of our company not only strengthens our competitiveness but also creates additional economic value in the region:

  • Economic benefits: Expanding market potential, diversifying risk, and extending our value chain.
  • Regional strengthening: New job opportunities, future-proof skills, and long-term job security.
  • Efficient supply: Thanks to increased economies of scale, we will be able to supply healthcare facilities even faster and more reliably in the future—both nationally and internationally.

Together Toward an International Future

With support from the GO-International grant program, Altruan GmbH is reaching an important milestone on its path to growth.

Our goal is to combine Bavarian quality standards with a strong international focus—to ensure a reliable supply, modern distribution structures, and sustainable growth in an increasingly global health and hygiene industry.
