Vector maintains relationships with several distribution points and leverages customer orders to get bulk discounting for non-system buyers. We are not a GPO, though our mission is similar to one, in that we aim to lower the cost of medical supplies for smaller buyers (specifically PPE and testing) during the ongoing global shortages and beyond.
Vector talks with you about the places you’d like to save money, or the supplies you are having trouble finding reliably, then reaches out to dozens of direct warehouses and fulfillment centers to source them. By Piggybacking similar orders, Vector is able to leverage better pricing through increasing the order quantity.
