History

edit

In 1970, Eugene Corasanti (1930–2015) purchased a small medical supplied distributor in Utica, New York. He originally named the company Concor Enterprises, but later renamed it to Consolidated Medical Equipment, Inc.[8] Its first product was a disposable ECG electrode.[2] Corasanti served as CEO until 2006 and chairman of the board until 2014. By the time he retired, CONMED had grown to around $700 million of sales.[8]

In May 2003 CONMED was cited by the FDA for violations at its Colorado plant.[9] Later in 2003, it filed suit against Johnson & Johnson, alleging that Johnson & Johnson was illegally coercing hospitals into purchasing their surgical instruments.[10] A financial analyst for Zacks in 2006 criticized CONMED for taking on the financial strain of this suit, combined with poor growth and debt from recent acquisitions.[11]

Eugene's son Joseph J. Corasanti replaced him as CEO in late 2006,[12] which was criticized by some as nepotism. At the time, the board had consisted entirely of Utica-area residents.[13] Joseph stepped down in 2014.[14]

In July 2022, CONMED moved its headquarters from Utica to Largo, Florida. Its plant in Utica remains open.[15]
