Cadence, a medical device contract manufacturing organization (CMO) and OEM partner, has celebrated the grand opening of its facility in Costa Rica. The celebration brought together industry leaders, government officials, and honored guests.
“We believe our location in the Coyol Free Zone is a competitive advantage for Cadence and are proud to be a part of this thriving medical technology sector,” commented Adrian Casares, Director of Operations, Cadence Costa Rica.
Cadence’s newly remodeled manufacturing facility features a state-of-the-art International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Class 7 cleanroom, finished device assembly capacity, value-added services, and vertically integrated precision machining technologies.
Cadence’s President and CEO, Rob Werge said, "Costa Rica offers a strategic location, a talented workforce, and a sustainable environment, making it the ideal destination for expanding our operations outside of the United States.

The company expects to expand its current capabilities in Costa Rica, with the hopes to grow full plant capacity to $40 million in revenue and double its workforce.
Cadence employs approximately 800 people worldwide with its corporate headquarters in Staunton, Virginia, and additional locations in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, Florida, and Costa Rica.
