Advanced Meditech and Schuco International Form U.K. Distribution Alliance

FLUSHING, New York – 3 May 2002 – Medical device developer Advanced Meditech International, Inc. (AMI) announced that is partnering with Schuco Interrnational London Ltd., to expand distribution of Li Brand™(TM) vasectomy instruments and equipment.

“We’re pleased that Schuco International is now distributing our Li Brand™(TM) no-scalpel vasectomy equipment in the United Kingdom,” said AMI President Curtis Lenox. “Schuco International has been a respected specialist importer for overseas manufacturers for over 40 years. They have a talented and focused sales team. We’re confident Schuco International will help us to grow our business and serve more customers in the years to come.”

As Paul Huttrer, Managing Director of Schuco International, explained, “Vasectomy is well-accepted in the United Kingdom as a permanent means of family planning. However, unlike the U.S., where 30% to 50% of vasectomies are now performed using the safer, less invasive “no-scalpel” method, most vasectomies in the U.K. are still done conventionally. For this reason, Li Brand™ instruments offer an excellent opportunity to bring this refined technique to U.K. practitioners.”

For more information about Li Brand™ instruments in the U.K., please contact Schuco International at sales@schuco.co.uk.
