When thinking about building a new plasma center, look at current and future needs.
There has been a trend in recent years of making plasma centers bigger and bigger. That strategy isn’t always the best. Stough can help you decide how big to go, in order to maximize production now and in the years ahead.
1. Why bigger — or smaller — isn’t necessarily smarter
It may seem like bigger is the best plan in order to prepare for growth. But until you grow, you will be paying unnecessary overhead for a building too big for your needs.
There is is also a downside to too small, however. You have to pay certain fixed costs no matter the size of your center. It’s better to build for current needs, while having space available to expand.
2. Right-sized rent
If your starting production level will require 8,500 sq. ft., why pay rent on 12,000 to 15,000 sq. ft. (the size of an average drug store converted to plasma operation)?
It’s better to choose a size right for right now, that will allow for expansion later. This way, you only pay rent on occupied space.

3. Configuring for tomorrow
Look carefully at the land you are considering. Is there space around it to grow, without cannibalizing your parking lot?
You also want to be sure expanding will not require you to cease operations during construction.
