NORTHFIELD, Ill., Sept. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Medline has invested an additional $500 million in incremental medical supply inventory to ensure product availability and timely delivery to the healthcare providers it serves. The investment, completed at the end of the second quarter of 2022, brings the company's total on-hand inventory to more than $4 billion and marks another step taken by Medline to help healthcare run better despite continued industry-wide global supply chain challenges.
"Our inventory management strategy has always been designed with one goal in mind – ensure that the right products are available at the right time to meet the demands of our customers and the patients in their care," said Jim Pigott, group president at Medline. "This latest investment reflects our ongoing pledge to provide reliable, superior service to healthcare systems across the continuum of care."
Medline's commitment to exceptional service is enabled by its intentionally balanced approach to global product and manufacturing diversification, which includes a product footprint spanning over 20 countries worldwide and expansive North American operations. Today, the company:
- Owns and operates over 20 manufacturing facilities across North America – including surgical device reprocessing and production of infection prevention, cardiology diagnostic and incontinence products, cleansing wipes, lotions, and patient plastics.
- As the market leader, manufactures over 200 million healthcare procedure kits annually in North America.
- Owns and operates over 50 distribution centers throughout North America, totaling more than 28 million sq. ft. of medical-grade warehouse space.
- Owns and operates its MedTrans fleet of over 1,300 trucks nationwide, enabling one-day shipping to 99% of the U.S.
Medline continues to invest in the resiliency of the supply chain through its national capital expenditure campaign, the Healthcare Resilience Initiative. Since 2018, the company has invested $2 billion in its U.S. distribution centers, manufacturing capabilities and IT upgrades to further its commitment to delivering superior customer service, with an additional $400M planned for 2022.
