CryoHoldco, Largest Cord Blood Bank in Latin America
Resulting from its aggressive expansion, CryoHoldco represents the largest stem cell banking operation in Latin America.
The company features two state-of-the art lab and storage facilities in Mexico and Colombia, as well as a growing network of 10,000+ affiliated doctors and 100+ sales offices. CryoHoldco’s state-of–the-art storage facility in Guadalajara, Mexico, has a capacity of 300,000 samples.
According to Cryoholdco leadership, the market must be consolidated, so the “larger companies can increase their investment in technology, state –of- the-art storage facilities, participate in clinical trials, improve operating performance and, most importantly, invest in educational programs with doctors and clients to convey the benefits of storing cord blood and tissue.”
