Testimonials

Customer success stories

In January 2024, Cato engaged in a long-term state health department contract to provide a comprehensive range of premium brand products including 32 unique SKUs across 49 medical facilities. The contract included PPE, diagnostic tests, and air purification products.

“Their commitment to excellence was evident in their 100% fulfillment rate, efficiently managing everything from distribution to logistics. Notably, Cato secured pricing that surpassed our expectations, offering better rates than we previously obtained through Grainger. Cato even curated substitutes on certain products to pass along significant cost savings and quicker fulfillment times. Their competitive pricing, combined with their flawless service delivery, has solidified our decision to continue our partnership with Cato as a distributor for our ongoing contracts. We highly recommend Cato for their reliability, competitive pricing, and exceptional service.”

- CEO, Major Distributor of Medical Supplies

”When our usual provider of Narcan Nasal Spray (Naloxone) unexpectedly faced a month-long disruption, we found ourselves in urgent need of a reliable alternative. We turned to our trusted partner, Cato, who promptly addressed our critical situation. Not only did they have significant inventory on hand, but they also arranged for next-day delivery. What set Cato apart was their exceptional service; they provided a hands-on staff member who personally delivered the products, demonstrating their commitment to expedited service and customer care. This experience has only deepened our trust and reliance on Cato as a responsive and dependable partner in emergency situations.”

“Between November 2020 and January 2021, Cato was asked to source and deliver high quality, exam-grade nitrile gloves to the State of California’s Department of General Services. This was amid one of the most severe periods of supply chain disruption and PPE scarcity in recorded history. Black Box Safety, Inc. (SDVOSB) was awarded multiple nitrile glove contracts with this office and engaged Cato to assist with sourcing the product, financing the net terms required by the state, and managing logistics/delivery of the goods. Cato was successful in delivering/assisting with multiple follow-up orders (of equal size) to the initial order (over 129k total boxes).”

“Cato has been exceptional throughout the purchase order and procurement process, presenting numerous options for COVID-19 test kits for self-administered application and helping finance high-volume test kit transactions (beginning the relationship with a 7-figure unit at-home test kit order). We searched and evaluated other COVID-19 test kit sources. Cato was the most competitive, offering the best solutions to meet our testing supply needs, and very flexible in shipping terms and able to deliver quickly to meet our requirements. I recommend Cato as a reputable and reliable source for any organization looking for any volume of COVID-19 test kits, e.g., Antigen, RT-PCR, PCR. Cato’s access to this highly sought-after medical product has exceeded the needs of our clients, especially amid one of the most severe periods of supply chain disruption and test kit scarcity in recorded history.”
