MARQUETTE, Mich., Oct. 11 /PRNewswire/ — Pioneer Surgical
Technology, Inc., a leader in innovative medical devices, announced
today the company’s plan to establish a manufacturing and
distribution facility in Ireland. Pioneer has initiated
discussions with the IDA (Ireland Development Authority) to
evaluate potential sites with target opening in Q4 2011. The
new facility will support Pioneer’s continued growth in Europe by
establishing a manufacturing facility within the EU. In
addition, the facility will allow for the manufacturing of devices
intended for sale outside the United States and allow for more
responsive delivery of products in the European market.
Pioneer’s global headquarters in Marquette, MI currently
coordinates activity at physical properties located in Raleigh and
Greenville, North Carolina, Woburn, Massachusetts, and the
Netherlands. According to Pioneer’s Vice President of Operations,
Brian Motter, “While our present manufacturing facility in
Marquette will continue to grow, the ability to provide products
from a European facility is an essential part of our worldwide
growth initiative. Having established a European presence
with the opening of our offices in the Netherlands in 2006 we will
continue to grow in Europe and the rest of the world. This facility
will enable us to be more responsive to customers outside of the
United States.”
Pioneer’s commitment to the local and regional economy remains
strong. The company continues to support local educational programs
that benefit the company’s high-quality, cost-effective
manufacturing operations. In 2007, Pioneer expanded its facility in
Marquette to more than 110,000 square feet to support continued
growth in spinal and orthopedic operations.
