UTICA — The success of CABVI Solutions, a full-service business service provider, continues to swell as CABVI’s largest commercial order was placed and filled for Medline Industries, LP, one of CABVI’s long-time vendors and partners.

Medline, a trusted client and vendor of CABVI for 20 years, reached out to CABVI’s business development team in November to discuss the project for their client to fill home health kits. The home health kits included bandages, thermometers, skin cream, N95 mask, toothbrushes, dental guards, dental floss picks, and a heating pad. The kits were sent to consumers in Ohio, Oklahoma, and Kansas.

CABVI’s Kent Street production area was ready to accommodate the logistics and challenges of a large kitting project under a tight deadline. A total of 38,901 home health kits were built in just 10 business days by a team from CABVI’s Central Industries.
