Headquartered near Charlotte, NC, Pelican Life Sciences’ mission is to facilitate life science research by providing the highest quality products for discovery and detection. Pelican’s targeted product mix includes life science reagents and specialty consumables. Focused segments include microbiology, molecular biology and non-commodity, specialty consumables.
