"We are pleased that Premier has chosen Adenna to be one of its national vendors for their exam glove business. This award represents the largest exam glove contract for Adenna to date, and we believe this is a tremendous opportunity for us to present our full-line family of exam gloves to a larger audience.", says Ralph Wadsworth, Adenna's Executive Vice-President.
Shawn O'Connell, Senior Director, Nursing with Premier added, "We saw an opportunity to offer members additional options within this product category with the contract expiring in 2002. Through a competitive bid process, Adenna demonstrated it could meet our membership's needs when it comes to quality and cost. We also look forward to working with Adenna as a valued diversity business partner as part of our ongoing Diversity Initiative.
