US-based Acustrip opens Euro office in United Kingdom

Acustrip Inc, the US-based manufacturer of specialty chemical and diagnostic test strips, has announced the opening of a UK-based sales and support office in Wigan, England. Lodestar Management Services Limited will represent Acustrip, initially with sales and product support, with a view to carrying inventory as the business grows.

Having recently brought a large UK-based global customer to Acustrip and having worked with Acustrip  in the past it seemed a logical step according to Ron Schornstein, President and Founder of Acustrip. “I have known Ian Jameson, the owner of Lodestar for a number of years and we have worked on a few projects together. He has very good contacts in a number of automotive and industrial sectors in the UK and across Europe and this, coupled with some new products just launched, and in the pipeline, leads us to believe we will now see some  serious growth in the UK and European market.”

The office will be fully operational December 1.
