The Consumer Goods Medical Scheme (CGMS) serves the healthcare needs of employees across South Africa’s dynamic consumer goods industry — a cornerstone of the economy that deserves its own dedicated healthcare partner.

Registered in 1993 as Tiger Brands Medical Scheme, the scheme has been providing exceptional private healthcare cover specific to the sector for over 32 years, continually evolving to meet changing needs. Now, as CGMS, we continue this legacy with a renewed focus on innovation, excellence and inclusion, ensuring members receive the highest standard of healthcare at every stage of life and across the spectrum of human capital.

Our industry focus means that benefits are designed to richly support the healthcare needs of this sector, backed by a strong solvency ratio of 42%, well above the 25% legal minimum, providing reliable, long-term financial security for both businesses and members. At the same time, our governance structure actively involves members and employers, creating a feedback loop that keeps the scheme responsive and sustainable.

As a forward-looking medical scheme, CGMS recognises that healthcare is not just about treating illness – it is about supporting wellbeing every step of the way. The scheme goes beyond basic cover with proactive programmes for wellness, immunisations, screenings, nutrition, fitness, and a 24/7 nurse advice line. Furthermore, CGMS makes healthcare access seem effortless for both employers and members with the support of dedicated key account managers.

Dedicated to affordability, sustainability, and employee wellbeing, CGMS is building on decades of trusted service to deliver healthcare solutions that safeguard the future of the consumer goods workforce and strengthen productivity across the value chain.

If your business involves bringing goods or services to consumers — whether through production, import, distribution, marketing, retail, or delivery — CGMS is the clear choice for you and your people.
