Disapo Insolvent After Douglas Sale, Investor Sought
The Dutch online pharmacy Disapo has become insolvent, with proceedings opened in mid-September 2026 for both the main entity disapo.de Apotheke B.V. and the China-focused Disapo BA B.V. Operations have largely ceased, affecting German customers who cannot place orders. The company, founded in 2004, was acquired by Douglas in 2022 but sold to MYA Health in August 2024 after a strategic shift, resulting in a loss of 5.9 million euros for Douglas. MYA Health's attempts to integrate Disapo into a digital health offering failed, and a subsequent sale to interested parties from Germany and China collapsed due to lack of capital. Liabilities of approximately 2.2 million euros to suppliers have accumulated. The insolvency administrator, Thomas Caron, is now seeking investors for the Heerlen logistics center, which spans 7,500 square meters and served the German market.
