The company's culture media is useful in the detection of bacterial pathogens, such as Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli, Tuberculosis, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Pneumococcus, Legionella, and others. Founded by Jay Hardy in 1980 and headquartered in Santa Maria, California, Hardy Diagnostics is the third-largest manufacturer of culture media in the United States,[1] manufacturing more than 2,700 different media products.[2] Hardy Diagnostics was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the 5000 fastest-growing private companies in the United States in 2009,[3] 2010, 2011,[4] and 2012. In August 2011 Hardy Diagnostics was chosen as "Business of the Year" by the Santa Maria Valley Chamber of Commerce.[5] The company has three manufacturing facilities, headquartered in Santa Maria, California. A second media manufacturing facility is located in Springboro, Ohio. In January 2016 the company acquired a Wichita Falls, Texas manufacturer of automatic microscope slide stainers and dubbed the new division QuickSlide.[6] Nationwide Distribution NetworkHardy Diagnostics is the only culture media manufacturer with 'bi-coastal' production. The company has two culture media manufacturing facilities, headquartered in Santa Maria, California, and its second manufacturing facility is located in Springboro, Ohio. Hardy Diagnostics invested over two million dollars in its clean room facilities in Ohio, which are slightly larger than the manufacturing facility in California. The company operates a third manufacturing facility for its QuickSlide division in Wichita Falls, Texas. There are also nine distribution centers in California, Washington, Arizona, Texas, Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, New York, and Utah. Awards and Certificates
Employee OwnershipAt the beginning of 2013, Hardy Diagnostics became employee owned through the formation of an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Program). Each Hardy employee is granted shares in the company at no cost to them. In August 2015, Jay Hardy sold his remaining shares to the employees, at which time the company became 100% employee owned. Because of the culture of an employee owned company, Hardy Diagnostics operates as an "open book" with its employees who are able to track the financial status of the company in minute detail. They also share in the quarterly profits generated by the company. External links
