GlobalMed Logistix (GMLx), provider of Value Added Services and Third-Party Logistics (3PL) Services for the medical device industry, announced a 65,000-square-foot expansion of its Atlanta-based campus in Norcross, Georgia. This new facility solidifies the completion of the 125,000-square-foot GMLx Atlanta Campus.
GMLx was founded to create win/win partnerships with both emerging growth and leading medical device manufacturers worldwide, acting as their full turn-key outsourced logistics provider in the United States. The expansion reflects the continual increase in demand from healthcare companies for the 45 years of medical device experience and 3PL services that GMLx offers.
The updated 65,000-square-foot facility will support the company’s growth strategy, allowing for the addition of new medical device manufacturer customers as well as an increase in service capabilities for their existing partners. GMLx continues to position itself as a valued partner in healthcare logistics, supporting over 150,000 surgical cases and orders per year at over 3,000 healthcare facilities across the county and in over 25 countries worldwide.
While the main warehouse is managed at ambient conditions, this best-in-class medical device grade facility includes a dedicated environmental control room to meet the demands of devices with stringent temperature and humidity requirements. Additionally, a segregated, 5,700 square foot area is dedicated to Quality Control Services which include AQL inspections, functional testing, and supplier coordination for sterilization. This upgraded facility also allows for the support of customers’ cold chain logistics needs.
As GMLx continues to expand, the company plans to strategically position itself to respond to the medical device industry’s growing demand for outsourced value-added services. In 2023, the company added new quality control, tissue distribution and cold chain logistics services to support existing and future customers. In 2024, GMLx will continue to add specialty services to support industry demand.
“At GMLx, we believe in our mantra of ‘together we grow,’ ” said Scott Vane, President and Chief Operating Officer, “and this expansion is a testament to the power of that collaboration. Over the past year, we’ve welcomed a remarkable number of team members and supported a record number of customers and transactions. The collective strides we’ve made have not only strengthened our organization but have positively impacted the customers and patients we serve. As we look to the future, we’re excited about this opportunity to continue that growth.”
