  SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Jul 31 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Bilcare Global Clinical Supplies, a leading single-source provider of
clinical trial services, announced that it has opened its new global U.S.
headquarters in San Francisco. The headquarters, which will be led by CEO
Vito Mangiardi, operates as the company's corporate hub to drive growth
in Bilcare's American, European, and Asian regions.

    "This year has been one of substantial growth in every area of our global
business, from staffing and facilities to equipment and services," said
Mangiardi. "While our U.S., India, and Wales-based facilities manage the
increased demand for research and packaging services, our headquarters
will dedicate itself to furthering global integration and growing the
company as a full-service solutions provider that can take customers from
research and development, to Phase I and II trials, and through
longer-term Phase III trials."

    The opening of Bilcare GCS' global headquarters marks the latest
development in the company's significant growth. During its 2007-2008
fiscal year, Bilcare GCS nearly doubled its global workforce, including
significant additions to its executive team; completed a US$2.3 million
capital investment program in the U.S.; expanded its facility in
Rajgurunagar, near Pune, India; plans US$21 million towards a new clinical
supplies facility in South Wales; and made significant global investments
in technology, project management, and quality standards to help drive
customer satisfaction and success. Other investments include new
integrated business processes that span the entire clinical supply chain
and cutting-edge technology solutions including interactive voice
response/interactive web response (IVR/IWR) services.

    "Bilcare has built its reputation on providing customers with the
highest-quality clinical supplies and research services, delivered on
time, every time," said Mangiardi. "Our new headquarters will allow us to
take our services to the next level while continuing to provide the
quality and attention that customers expect and deserve."
