From zero retail locations to more than 20,000 in less than two years. That’s what happens when a product like WoundSeal meets an important consumer need that creates an entirely new category for retailers to add to their first aid section. Sam Shake, president of Biolife, is pleased to announce that several major retailers have agreed to carry WoundSeal, the only first aid product on the market that stops bleeding through the creation of an instant scab:
· Rite Aid Pharmacy – 4,700 locations throughout the US
· H-E-B Pharmacy – 300+ locations throughout Texas
· Duane Reade Pharmacy – 250+ locations throughout New York
· Giant Eagle – 200+ locations in Pennsylvania, Ohio, north central West Virginia and Maryland
The new retailers join Walgreens and CVS Pharmacy to make up a retail network of more than 20,000 locations. Used in hospitals around the country for several years, the same topical powder doctors trust is now available in the First Aid aisle to stop bleeding anytime, anywhere in the home or on the go. “We are excited to expand the reach of WoundSeal into new markets and supplement existing ones with our new retail partners,” states Shake. “As the only first aid product that guarantees to stop a bleeding external wound, WoundSeal has been a win-win for retailers and consumers.”
Shake notes that WoundSeal’s retail success is largely attributed to two sets of consumers – seniors with thin skin and active adults who bleed easily – who embraced the product because it provided a solution that couldn’t be solved with existing products.
“Many of the customers who use WoundSeal have battled prolonged bleeding episodes that can last hours or even days. For them and anyone else suffering from a bleeding injury, WoundSeal offers a unique and clinically proven solution: the ability to stop bleeding instantly while protecting the wound with an instant scab.” For more information on WoundSeal – such as specific locations, clinical studies and customer testimonials – visit www.woundseal.com.
