UK’s largest diagnostics company expands thanks to Ā£50 million HSBC backing

UK's largest diagnostics company expands thanks to £50 million HSBC backing

The UK’s largest diagnostics company is set to expand further into international markets thanks to a £50 million funding package from HSBC UK.

Northern Ireland-based Randox, which produces over 4 billion diagnostic health tests annually, will use the funding to support further expansion.

With manufacturing facilities in the UK, Ireland, India, and shortly to include the US, the company is set to export its products to 145 countries through its 18 global offices and worldwide distributor network.

Additionally, the funding will support the continued roll out of new Randox Health clinics throughout the UK, ensuring the company can continue to bring cutting edge diagnostic services direct to the general public.

Moving to HSBC UK has also allowed Randox to streamline its international operations by integrating its banking under HSBC’s global network, facilitating better co-ordination and more efficient management of its overseas businesses.

Dr Peter Fitzgerald, managing director at Randox, said: “The need for a strategic banking partner with sector-specific expertise was crucial in choosing HSBC, and the team’s knowledge and international proposition aligns well with our growth ambitions.

“Being able to export into new overseas markets and grow our clinic network will ensure that more people than ever before can shift away from the traditional model of sickness management to a new era of truly preventative healthcare.”

Rory Clarke, global relationship director at HSBC, said: “We are thrilled to support Randox as it continues its rapid growth, both overseas and here in the UK. This funding will streamline the banking side of the business, enabling it to focus on expanding its international presence and its direct-to-consumer business.”

James Cundy, head of corporate and leveraged finance at HSBC, said: “Delighted to be able to support a leading diagnostics company such as Randox. The financing we have provided will help support growth and further R&D in this important area of preventative healthcare.”

Randox has already invested over £400 million in developing its innovative biochip array technology which allows multiple diagnostic tests to be run simultaneously from a single blood sample.

The company manufactures a wide range of diagnostic reagents, tests and analysers for sale globally, with Randox Health’s network of 38 clinics in the UK, Ireland and the US, providing health screening and other services direct to the general public.

Randox Renews its Sponsorship of the Grand National for a Further Three Years

Randox Renews its Sponsorship of the Grand National for a Further Three Years

Friday 4th April 2025

The Jockey Club is delighted to announce today, Ladies Day of the Randox Grand National Festival, that Randox has renewed its sponsorship of the Grand National for a further three years – taking its backing of world’s greatest chase up to and including the 2029 renewal

Randox, which was founded in 1982 and specialises in the provision of timely and accurate diagnostic testing and promotion of preventative healthcare, first extended its support to the world’s greatest chase in 2017 when One For Arthur was successful.

The sponsorship extension announced today means that Northern Ireland-based Randox has put its name to the Grand National for a total of 12 years – equaling the record length as a title sponsor held by Martell, who backed the great race from 1992 to 2004.

Dr Peter FitzGerald, founder and Managing Director of Randox, said:

“Extending our sponsorship of the Randox Grand National to 2029 reflects our commitment to the promotion of preventative health and well-being across the nation.

Our goal is to enable people to live better for longer and, in doing so, to achieve much wider social benefit. Our comprehensive testing programmes, are now available in 30 clinics across the UK and Ireland, extending to 58 clinics by the end of 2025 and 143 clinics by late 2026 – providing easy access to advanced and cost-effective testing programmes to support prevention and better long-term health. In doing so we are fully aligned with the Government’s and the NHS’s drive to achieve a healthier, more productive society.

I am delighted to be extending our relationship with Aintree, The Jockey Club and the City of Liverpool – this a truly iconic national event, in a great city.

I congratulate Aintree and The Jockey Club in their stewardship of the People’s Race and if our continuing sponsorship helps shift the dial toward a healthier and more prosperous nation, our time and resources will have been well spent.

Dickon White, The Jockey Club's North West Regional Director, added:

“I would like to extend our sincere thanks to Randox for its generous and continued support of the Grand National. We love working with Peter and all the team at Randox, whose passion not only for the Grand National but the whole festival and all the work we do in the community mirrors our own.

While Randox has become synonymous with the People’s Race as its sponsor, what few people will appreciate is just how invested in and passionate they are about these three days and horseracing more broadly. We could not wish for a more loyal partner, whose ongoing commitment extends way beyond the Randox Grand National Festival itself and includes so many events leading up to it.

Their time as Grand National sponsor has already seen some truly memorable renewals of the world’s greatest steeplechase, including Rachael Blackmore becoming the first female jockey to win the race aboard Minella Times in 2021 and the back-to-back victories of Tiger Roll in 2018 and 2019. We look forward to many more memorable moments in the future.”


Jenny and Gemma Saddle up to Support Prostate Cancer UK as Randox Backs Charity at Iconic Grand National Festival

Sports News Release

Jenny and Gemma saddle up to support Prostate Cancer UK as Randox backs charity at iconic Grand National Festival

  • Grand National headline sponsor Randox to donate sponsorship rights, including Ladies Day Race title, to help save men’s lives
  • Leading men’s health charity to raise awareness of England’s most common cancer across iconic Festival
  • Prostate Cancer UK supporters and broadcasters Jenny Powell and Gemma Oaten among Ladies Day special guests

Prostate Cancer UK will deliver life-saving messaging to thousands of racegoers at this year’s Grand National Festival thanks to headline sponsors, Randox.

Randox is donating the sponsorship of the title race to Prostate Cancer UK on Ladies Day on Friday April 4th, and broadcasters and special guests Jenny Powell and Gemma Oaten will be visiting the famous Festival, continuing their support for the leading men’s health charity.

Powell and Oaten will be in the stands to watch the Randox Supporting Prostate Cancer UK Topham Chase, with the Aintree event holding added significance for the duo, whose families have both been affected by prostate cancer. Jenny’s father died of prostate cancer in 2021, while Gemma’s dad, Dennis, is living with advanced prostate cancer.

Jenny Powell, who presents the weekend breakfast show on Greatest Hits Radio, said:

“Losing my dad to prostate cancer was heartbreaking, so I want to use my family’s experience to help others and continue the conversation about the disease.

“My dad was a strong, proud man who never liked talking about his health. His experience taught me that we need to encourage men to have open conversations about prostate cancer risk. That’s why it’s fantastic that Randox has picked Prostate Cancer UK as a charity partner of the Randox Grand National Festival.

“There will be a lot of men watching the racing at Aintree, and one in eight of them will get prostate cancer. That’s a scary statistic, but one that Prostate Cancer UK are working to reverse, and I’m delighted to be supporting the charity on Ladies Day this year.”

Former Emmerdale actress Oaten said:

“My dad is a massive horseracing fan, so being at the Randox Grand National on Ladies Day, supporting Prostate Cancer UK, is really exciting.

“When my dad was diagnosed with Stage 3 prostate cancer, our whole world stopped. Thankfully he’s still going strong today, and sharing his story has hopefully encouraged men like him to go to speak to their GP if they have any concerns themselves.

“Dad’s experience has also allowed me to work closely with Prostate Cancer UK and learn what fantastic work they do; not only in research into the disease, but supporting men and their families living with a diagnosis.

“It’ll be a real honour to represent the charity on Ladies Day, and I can’t wait to see the action at Aintree.”

Laura Kerby, Chief Executive of Prostate Cancer UK, said:

“We’re incredibly grateful to Randox for their generous support, and for providing such a significant platform to shine a spotlight on prostate cancer, the most common cancer in men.

“The Randox Grand National is one of the most iconic sporting events in the world, with the eyes of millions of horseracing fans across the UK firmly fixed on the action at Aintree every year. This partnership will enable Prostate Cancer UK to reach even more men with our lifesaving message and help save lives.”

Dr. Peter FitzGerald, Managing Director of Randox Health, said:

“At Randox, we are committed to improving health outcomes through innovation and early diagnosis, and we are honoured to support Prostate Cancer UK through our Grand National sponsorship. By dedicating the Ladies Day race to this important cause, we hope to drive greater awareness and encourage men to take charge of their health.

“Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men, with risk increasing due to factors such as age, family history, and ethnicity. Early detection is crucial, as the disease often develops without symptoms in its early stages. By raising awareness of these risk factors and the importance of regular health checks, we aim to empower men with the knowledge they need to take proactive steps in safeguarding their health.”

The 2025 Randox Grand National Festival takes place from Thursday, April 3rd to Saturday, April 5th at Aintree Racecourse. The Randox Supporting Prostate Cancer UK Topham Chase will be held on Ladies Day, Friday April 4th, as runners and riders take on the iconic Grand National fences.

The Randox Grand National 2025 Trophy

Randox is delighted to present the winner’s trophy for the Randox Grand National 2025. Expertly crafted by renowned Liverpudlian jewellery brand Boodles, this year’s trophy embodies the deep connection between Randox and the world’s most prestigious steeplechase, held annually at Aintree Racecourse. Inspired by Randox’s pioneering Biochip technology, the trophy’s striking design symbolises innovation, scientific advancement, and human endeavour. Subtle details within the craftsmanship also pay tribute to Aintree, seamlessly weaving elements of the iconic racecourse into its design.

Crafted with Purpose

The 2025 Randox Grand National Trophy is a masterpiece of design, seamlessly blending scientific innovation with the rich heritage of the world’s greatest steeplechase. The trophy prominently features a molecular structure and a DNA helix, represented by sixteen spheres and bars, mirroring the sixteen jumps of the Grand National course.

Encircling this intricate design is a stylised horseshoe, honouring the exceptional horses at the heart of this historic event and reflecting Randox’s deep-rooted passion for the sport. The trophy’s base, crafted from green malachite, is crowned with a Biochip-inspired design, inlaid with diamond discs. This element not only pays homage to Randox’s groundbreaking diagnostic technology but also evokes the tradition of incorporating precious gemstones into Grand National trophies throughout history.

Randox Founder and Managing Director, Dr. Peter FitzGerald, a passionate horseman himself, shared his thoughts on this year’s trophy:

“This year’s Randox Grand National Trophy, crafted by Boodles, is a stunning fusion of tradition and innovation.

In recent years, Randox has designed the Grand National trophies in-house. However, for 2025, the honour has been entrusted once again to Boodles, a prestigious jeweller with a rich history of crafting Grand National trophies. This collaboration is driven by a shared passion for horse racing between Randox, Boodles, and The Jockey Club. Reflecting on this return to tradition, Michael Wainwright, Chairman of Boodles, shared his thoughts:

“Boodles is delighted to be partnering with Randox to design the 2025 Randox Grand National trophy.

Randox renews Ulster National sponsorship at Downpatrick Racecourse

THE Ulster National, run at Downpatrick Racecourse since 1939, is one of the highlights of the racing year in Northern Ireland. It is therefore fitting that locally-based company Randox, whose racing portfolio has included the Aintree Grand National since 2017, has announced the renewal of their sponsorship of the Ulster National for the next five years, from 2025 until 2029. Randox will also sponsor 10 additional races at Downpatrick during each year.

This year’s Randox Ulster National will be held on Sunday, March 30th and is run over a distance of three miles and four furlongs, with a generous prize fund of €50,000.

Previous winners of the Ulster National include some well-known names: Caughoo won the Ulster National in 1945 and 1946 and went on to win the Aintree Grand National in 1947, ridden by jockey Eddie Dempsey and trained by Dublin-based Herbert McDowell. Laffy, owned by HRH Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother won the Ulster National in 1962, while more recently, Pineau de Re won the race in 2013, going on to claim the Aintree Grand National in 2014.

Randox is a global innovative healthcare diagnostics company, based in Crumlin, County Antrim and was founded in 1982 by Dr Peter FitzGerald, a medical scientist and keen horseman. The company’s sponsorship of racing includes the Randox Grand National at Aintree and title sponsorship of the three-day Randox Grand National Festival.

Randox sponsorship at Downpatrick began in 2020, with a five-year term having just come to an end. The renewal of this sponsorship for a further five years is a positive move for the racecourse and will certainly add to the excitement of the Ulster National for the next five years!

Dr Peter FitzGerald CBE, Founder and Managing Director of Randox, said:

“This is an incredibly exciting time to be extending our partnership with Downpatrick Racecourse for the Randox Ulster National. Racing is a sport everyone can enjoy, from all different walks of life, and a partnership with Downpatrick offers us a fantastic opportunity to share our message of preventative health with a wide and engaged audience. The past five years, Randox has expanded into a strong and growing network of clinics across the UK & Ireland giving everyone the access they need to unlock their health. We look forward to the next five years of the Randox Ulster National.”

Ruth Morrison, Manager at Downpatrick Racecourse also said:

“I am thrilled that Randox has committed to extending their sponsorship of the Randox Ulster National at Downpatrick Racecourse for another five years, along with 10 additional races each season.

Rapid Diagnosis of Bacterial Meningitis with Vivalytic

Rapid Diagnosis of Bacterial Meningitis with Vivalytic

Randox Laboratories, in collaboration with Bosch Healthcare Solutions (BHCS) is proud to announce the availability of the new Vivalytic Bacterial Meningitis panel on the Vivalytic platform. This highly advanced multiplex PCR test detects six of the most common bacterial pathogens responsible for meningitis, providing results in under an hour.

Meningitis is a critical medical emergency that requires rapid diagnosis to ensure timely and targeted treatment according to current guidelines (1). Over 2,5 million people are infected globally by meningitis each year, with half of these cases affecting children below the age of 5 (2). Furthermore, 20% of bacterial meningitis cases lead to permanent complications such as hearing loss, seizures or brain damage(3), if immediate treatment is not received, about 50% of cases will be fatal (4).

Enter Vivalytic

With a sample of only 200μl of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF), the Vivalytic Bacterial Meningitis Panel simplifies and accelerates the diagnostic process into 4 simple steps, delivering reliable results within 1 hour to support life-saving clinical decisions with the appropriate antibiotic treatment.

The panel detects key pathogens associated with bacterial meningitis:

Detectable Pathogens
Escherichia coli K1 Neisseria meningitidis
Haemophilus influenzae Streptococcus agalactiae
Listeria monocytogenes Streptococcus pneumoniae

The innovative all-in-one Vivalytic cartridge minimises the risk of contamination and reduces hands-on time for laboratory staff. This new panel aligns with our mission to improve patient outcomes and support healthcare providers with cutting-edge diagnostic solutions.

The Vivalytic Bacterial Meningitis panel is CE-marked and available to order. For further information on rapid diagnosis of bacterial meningitis with Vivalytic, please visit https://www.randox.com/vivalytic-bacterial-meningitis/ or contact your Randox representative.
