SEATTLE, WA — SciMercor, LLC, an equipment sourcing service provider to the biotech industry, has opened its doors and is ready to do business.

“With the explosion in biotechnology around the world, we found a strong need in the market for services such as ours: locating, procuring, and shipping of quality surplus and certified used equipment to laboratories and facilities, domestically and internationally.” states SciMercor CEO, Carole Spangler, Ph.D.

“We have had numerous requests for sourcing services from biotechnology companies that don’t have the time or resources to find the equipment they need in order to set-up their labs. They turned to us, and consequently, we have aligned our business to meet that market need.” Dr. Spangler continued.

With a strong team in place, and the development of an easy to use website to support sourcing requests, SciMercor is in position to utilize its equipment and supplier network to meet the needs of this $100 billion market.

SciMercor’s sourcing services address the needs of biotech startups, university research labs, overseas biotech companies and organizations, and any biotech group that needs assistance in locating, procuring, and shipping quality scientific equipment and supplies at a fraction of the cost of brand new equipment.

To get started, an organization simply submits an equipment request on www.scimercor.com, with some contact information and SciMercor takes it from there, keeping in contact with the requestor on the status of their request.

“As an experienced researcher, I wished I had this service when I managed labs both in academia and industry. It would have gone a long way in saving me time and helping me stretch my budget,” says Dr. Spangler.
