How we serve the region
Built for island logistics
Many Caribbean laboratories order in smaller volumes, across long supply lines. Our Miami operation is designed around that reality.
-
In-house logistics
Orders are consolidated at our Miami facility, so multi-brand shipments travel together.
-
Refrigerated storage
Reagents and controls stay in refrigerated storage and are handled as refrigerated cargo.
-
Foreign-Trade Zone
A U.S. Customs–approved FTZ designed for re-export to the Caribbean and Latin America.
-
Advice and training
Scientific and technical guidance before and after the sale, plus training on the instruments we supply.
FAQ
Questions from Caribbean laboratories
Which Caribbean countries does Ryvex serve?
Ryvex serves laboratories in 24 Caribbean markets — Antigua and Barbuda, Aruba, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bermuda, Bonaire, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Curaçao, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, Montserrat, Saba, St. Eustatius, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Maarten, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago, Turks and Caicos, US Virgin Islands — as well as laboratories throughout Latin America.
How are temperature-sensitive reagents handled?
Perishable reagents and controls are kept in refrigerated storage at our Miami facility and handled as refrigerated cargo, preserving their quality and shelf life until they are shipped.
What does Ryvex’s Foreign-Trade Zone mean for my orders?
Ryvex is approved by U.S. Customs as a privately established Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ). Goods in a U.S. FTZ are treated as outside U.S. customs territory, so merchandise re-exported from the zone generally does not pay U.S. customs duties — an efficient base for serving the Caribbean and Latin America.
Can Ryvex supply products that are not in the online catalog?
Yes. The catalog lists the products we supply most often. Through our manufacturers — and as an authorized VWR and Fisher Scientific distributor — we can source many more laboratory products. Send us your list.
Do you provide technical support and training?
Yes. Our team, with 75+ years of combined experience in the clinical laboratory, provides scientific and technical advice and the training needed to operate the instruments we supply.
