Owens & Minor, Inc. (NYSE: OMI) today announced important
milestones in advancing the medical distribution capabilities of
its Products & Healthcare Services (P&HS) business segment,
which provides essential products and services to thousands of

experience. Initial roll out will focus on two new Owens &
Minor distribution centers in West Virginia and South Dakota.
“Over the past two years, our P&HS teammates have worked
creatively and diligently to identify areas where technology
investments, operational upgrades and new approaches to how we do
business could have a meaningful impact for our customers,” said
Andy Long, EVP and CEO, Products & Healthcare Services, Owens
& Minor. “We’re excited for these advancements to go live in
West Virginia and South Dakota and look forward to the benefits
they will provide for other Owens & Minor customers in years to
come.”
These new capabilities will be operational at two new Owens
& Minor sites starting in 2025:
- A new state of the art distribution center with advanced
automation and robotics technology to help streamline and expedite
inventory management and order fulfilment in West Virginia (now
open)
