Spanish Health Lean Logistics Locates U.S. HQ in Atlanta, Georgia

04/13/2011
Health Lean Logistics, a healthcare logistics and distribution company based in Barcelona, Spain, will locate its U.S. headquarters and logistics platform in Atlanta, Georgia. The company will create 100 jobs as part of its first U.S. investment.

"We couldn't be more pleased with our selection of Georgia as our point of entry to the United States market," said Dr. Albert Tarrats, CEO of Health Lean Logistics. "Atlanta is a leading international cluster of both applied information technology to the healthcare sector and supply chain logistics, and our arrival is one more proof as to how these living clusters attract best practices players regardless of geographical origin. The advantages gained by having direct flight access to our other international locations in Central and South America, as well as a number of other synergistic variables, separated Georgia from the rest of our choices."

The company will use its system of managing the consumption and supply of materials to healthcare facilities from its new Atlanta base.
