Rebecca Ambrose is back

Rebecca Ambrose is back after 9 months maternity leave
It is a pleasure to say that on the 1st May we welcomed back an important member of the Lorne family. Rebecca Ambrose is back after 9 months maternity leave and is raring to go. Some of our export customers will get to know Rebecca a bit more as she is now one half of our export team.

Fortunately Lorne have bagged a buy one, get one free deal with the addition of Aidan (the little cutie on the right). At first he was slightly rattled but with a few huggies from his mother, he dived straight in to business and has already made an impact in his new management role.

Our blood grouping reagents are now untouchable when it comes to quality and Aidan would like us to believe that it is all down to his perfectionism. As you can see in the picture, Aidan’s gaze was distracted by yet another opportunity to increase sales. He toys around with new ideas and has the bottle to put the best of them to bed. Let me tell you, he doesn’t hold back. What he lacks in stature he more than makes up for by ordering us around, keeping us on our toes while he remains on all fours.

Ok, in all seriousness, Aidan is not in charge of Lorne. But maybe Rebecca will fill him with a love for blood grouping reagents and one day, he may exchange his pram for a seat on the Board. It’s a nice thought anyway. But it is great to welcome back Rebecca. She has the biggest smile in Lorne and her optimism is truly inspiring.

Medica 2011



It’s that time of the year again. After weeks of preparation, six of the Lorne team are heading off to Dusseldorf in Germany to fly the flag for the company. For those that have never been, this is the largest trade fair of its kind in Europe, occupying the huge exhibition complex next to the Rhine, just to the north of the city. I suspect that it could be seen from space, but I don’t have the time to go and find out for myself.

Everyone who is anyone in this business will be there. The Lorne team will be there in our capacity as a manufacturer of high quality blood screening reagents as well as being laboratory equipment suppliers. It is a great time to catch up with many of the Lorne distributors who are coming from across the globe to be there. This year, just to add a bit of spice to the proceedings, we will be offering two training sessions – a chance for us to give a little bit more information to the attendees about blood screening, blood grouping reagents, the manufacturing process and a little about the company as well. We might just chuck in something about the excellent blood banks we supply. Well, why wouldn’t we? They are rather good, you know.
