Try this for a story, how did Worcester miss out on Quest? Think about it. Quest is a national firm that specializes in lab testing. They are moving in big to Massachusetts, where in Central Mass their biggest competition was UMASS.
Why did I say was? They bought them out. When they bought out UMASS they mentioned how they were looking to build a big facility in Central Massachusetts. Can you say Worcester, can you say Wyman Gordon parcel, can you say SWIP??
Well, don't instead say Marlboro. October 25, 2012-- Read it and weep. Meanwhile back at the ranch SWIP is working on a marketing plan some 20 years after creation.
Quest Diagnostics Inc.
has agreed to move into the former Hewlett-Packard office complex in
Marlborough, moving more than 950 jobs to the city, according to a
person with direct knowledge of the deal.
The New Jersey-based provider of medical testing services will spend
more than $75 million to create a Northeast laboratory facility on the
former Hewlett-Packard site, which has been vacant for more than two
years, according to the source, who was not authorized to speak publicly
because the deal has not been announced.
