Your saying that's Ethicon's facilities. But if you read Fowlers quote "it doesn't make sense"
"The firm is the largest OEM for one of the largest US medical device companies, and its clients include very large medical device companies as well as smaller, early stage companies." (Release Link Below)
Ethicon is the largest OEM for Johnson & Jonson (who does not label themselves a med device company, but as a healthcare company, so that doesn't fit) and its clients include very large medical device companies as well as smaller, early stage companies
Or
J&J is the largest OEM for Ethicon (they are calling Ethicon a client?) and its clients include very large medical device companies as well as smaller, earlier stage companies
Listen to what that sounds like when you say it out loud. Why wouldn't they just make it in house. That's god awful Supply chain. It was listed as two separate companies for a reason. Good luck putting all of your eggs in one basket. Wouldn't it be wise to think that some of our countries largest OEM's would play in multiple market sectors instead of limiting itself just to med device. IMO....
