McCoy Health Science Supply

What McCoy Health Science Supply does

McCoy Health Science Supply (d/b/a McCoy Medical) is a U.S.-focused, private specialty distributor of medical apparel, diagnostic instruments, and related professional supplies, operating from its headquarters and fulfillment center at 11559 Rock Island Court, Maryland Heights, Missouri. The company runs a direct-to-consumer and B2B e-commerce platform at mccoymedical.com that catalogs medical apparel (scrubs, lab coats, surgical gowns, warm-up jackets) from brands such as Fashion Seal, White Swan/Meta, Jockey Scrubs, and Propel, alongside diagnostic instruments including 3M Littmann stethoscopes, sphygmomanometers, tuning forks, EKG accessories, protective eyewear, anatomical models, and pre-configured professional kits. Value-added offerings include customizable nursing skills kits and in-house embroidery services for institutional branding.

The business operates a dual-channel go-to-market: (1) an e-commerce storefront selling at MSRP to retail customers and at wholesale pricing to registered institutional accounts with credit-based terms, and (2) a three-person regional sales representative network (covering the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic, South-Central, and Western U.S. territories) that manages institutional accounts directly. Customer segments span individual healthcare professionals, hospitals/clinics/medical schools, and nursing/medical students. McCoy Health Science Supply is a subsidiary under Medical Catalog Enterprises, Inc., which also operates Matthews Books and shared e-commerce platform services for affiliated brands; the parent relationship provides shared back-office infrastructure but limits disclosed financial granularity, and no funding rounds, M&A activity, AI/ML capabilities, or public-market signals are present in the available data.
