LabTrader and California Based Purchasing Goals for Proposition 71

LabTrader Scientific Equipment commends the passing of Proposition 71 in the state of California. As a California based equipment seller LabTrader is an excellent source for procuring research and development instrumentation to fulfill purchasing standards set forth in Proposition 71.

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) February 13, 2005 -- LabTrader is a primary source nationwide for high-end, cost effective scientific instrumentation. The Citizens Oversight Committee for Prop 71 has outlined purchasing standards to insure meeting the goal of having over 50% of goods and services procured from California based retailers. To support Prop 71 LabTrader is offering discounts to researchers receiving funding via Californias stem cell initiative.

What we are offering to stem cell researchers is a one source solution for instrumentation that meets the following needs: 1) fulfills purchasing standards outlined by Prop 71 to purchase over 50% of their goods from California based businesses (most major distributors are based on the East Coast, we offer a purchasing solution within the state) 2) high-end quality instruments fully tested and delivered to your facility quickly (most government projects experience delays in the disbursement of funds – we can work with institutions to prepare equipment orders in advance then the day monies come in we can have equipment out and in the hands of researchers immediately) and 3) we stand by our clients through the long term. A great phrase we use around our offices is that we do not walk away from any clients. LabTrader has worked with hundreds of organizations around the country throughout the lifecycle of their company – from the first pieces of research equipment purchased by the original start-up founders, all the way into discovery and production." notes President Dexter W Gaston.

In addition to heading up LabTrader, Mr. Gaston himself has run and currently oversees several biotech start ups, including a stem cell company, in the San Diego area. His years of expertise in the biotech and pharmaceutical industries is what he attributes to LabTraders success over the last few years. We are able to not only provide great equipment, but we speak with all of our customers about their specific needs, what experiments they are running, etc. so we can insure that they are buying the right equipment to meet their research and production goals."
