Founded in 1919, HOSPECO celebrated 100 years of business last year. Now, a new century of service begins with a new name and a fresh philosophy that, though rooted in tradition, is designed to meet the needs of today’s marketplace.
In recent years, the company has strategically acquired complementary companies and brands to expand its category expertise and offer a broader selection of products. These acquisitions now culminate with the introduction of Hospeco Brands Group. The new Hospeco Brands Group has a customized approach to each of its market channels, offering each segment a powerhouse product lineup supported by nuanced educational tools, training, sales collateral, and knowledgeable field and inside sales support required to super-serve customers.
The brand integrations that helped form the Hospeco Brands Group are: Acute Care Pharmaceuticals, provider of USP 797 and USP 800 compliant disposable product for compounding pharmacies and cleanrooms, many sold under the Pharma-Choice name; Adenna, manufacturer and supplier of disposable gloves, safety products, wiping cloths and workplace essentials; HOSPECO, manufacturer of cleaning and protection products serving the “away from home” marketplace; and Nilodor, known for odor control and facility care solutions for commercial markets, including odor control and complete carpet maintenance programs.
“While we will continue to expand by adding companies focused on manufacturing and marketing products that complement our signature bundle, we felt now was the right time to bring them together under one brand to help our customers more easily access all of our products,” said Bill Hemann, executive vice president, Hospeco Brands Group.
Bringing all the brands that make sense together under a single moniker, Hospeco Brands Group is poised to serve its customers like never before. With its customer-focused approach and distributor partners, Hospeco Brands Group offers greater value to end users and assists them in achieving healthy, safe, clean, comfortable, and productive environments for their customers, employees, and other constituencies.
“Customers will experience an expanded breadth of line in our Signature Bundle of essential products, while continuing to rely on us for ongoing innovation and consolidated ordering,” said Jessilyn Duke, executive vice president, Adenna. “Most important, our segment expertise and focus in each of our respective channels help ensure that customers can count on us for expert product knowledge that is relatable to the specific challenges they face every day.”
