OLD FORGE, Penn. (April 22, 2020)—Golden Technologies was recently notified by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) of their intent to exercise the second option year of their current five-year contract, which runs through April of 2023 to supply mobility products. Golden proudly provides power scooters across the VA nationwide to enhance the quality of life for Veterans and allow them the freedom of movement and independence they so deserve.

“It is unprecedented for the VA to commit fully to a five-year contract, which normally is reviewed and approved year by year on an annual basis. We are humbled and honored to continue to provide top of the line power mobility equipment to our Veterans,” said Rich Golden, CEO of Golden Technologies. “Our Companion GC240 and GC340 power scooters allow them to access medical care and perform necessary tasks at home and in community environments that are so important to maintaining independence in their daily life,” he added.

“We are extremely proud of our long-standing relationship and the reputation we have built with the Department of Veterans Affairs. It is a great honor to not only have been awarded the Nationwide Scooter Contracts, but to be assured—especially during these challenging times—that they are confident in Golden and counting on us to provide scooters to our nation’s Veterans through 2023,” said Donna Payer, VA National Account Director. 

Golden was awarded their first nationwide scooter contract by the VA in 2003 for the categories of Mid-size 3-Wheel and Full-size 3-Wheel Scooters. The Companion GC240 and GC340 power scooters are the Golden models provided to our Veterans. The period of performance for the contract will end in April 2023.
