Meridian Surgical Partners, a Brentwood, Tenn.-based company specializing in acquisition, development and management of multi-specialty and spine-driven ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), has selected Medline Industries, Inc. as its primary distribution partner for medical and surgical supplies.

The three-year agreement for distribution services is expected to provide significant savings to Meridian’s facilities through reduced medical supply costs and distribution efficiencies over the term of the agreement. 

Medline, with 37 distribution centers strategically located throughout the country, will provide its broad array of company brand and other national brand medical and surgical products directly to Meridian’s 14 ASCs. The agreement is expected to generate approximately $9 million in sales of medical and surgical supplies through Medline over the course of the deal. 

“Medline’s extensive distribution capabilities and quality self-manufactured products will help us to reduce our overall costs and at the same time improve service to our national network of facilities,” said John C. Wilson, Jr., chief financial officer at Meridian Surgical Partners.
