Those who have the ambition to go into business for themselves and start an online mail order pharmacy are to be encouraged, as the pharma business always has a head of steam to it. These days the rise in online pharmacies in Canada even has major chain pharmacies in the US like Walgreen’s are closing stores, so the market demand is there to support starting up an online pharmacy. As is the case for any business, as it gets off the ground it can be very beneficial to establish partnerships, and this applies for a partner pharmacy too.

CanPharm is very well set up to offer this type of partnership for other pharmacies that are coming up the same path we did. That may sound all well and good, but it’s possible that the types of ventures that may benefit from this are still left asking what is partner pharmacy. That’s fine, and we’re happy to explain. We can start with what you likely already know – that a partnership is always going to be an agreement entered into by two parties when it looks like both will benefit from it. And that applies here too.  

The more than 20 years of experience CanPharm has in the online pharmacy space makes us an industry leader. The expansiveness of our operations makes us able to accommodate other pharmacies as they continue to cement themselves online the same, we did all those many years ago. First and foremost, what makes us the ideal partner pharmacy is our ability identify and secure advantageous medication sourcing agreements with pharmaceutical wholesalers.  

This means less chance of being unable to fill prescriptions because you’re unable to source the medications to the extent you need to. That’s often a big issue for new pharmacies that haven’t built a solid and far-reaching network with wholesalers – something that we’ve done here at CanPharm with great success to be able to serve as a central fill pharmacy. Partners tap into our mainframe for those same advantages, plus gaining access to our Advanced Pharmacy Management System. 

Optimal Pairing 

That system will heighten the appeal of coming on board with us as a partner pharmacy. It features automated high throughput dispensing technology, and for partners being able to implement it in their operations means maximum efficiency and better allocation of pharma business resources. Further growth is expected with our pharmacy, and that will continue to be the case as ever greater numbers of the US population look to Canada for lower prices on prescription drugs.  

Our PMS will help partners accommodate the portion of that growing demand for having prescriptions filled in Canada that is inevitably going to come their way too. They will be taking the exact same steps we did in building up a pharmacy that can do that for US customers as often as we do. Add the robust wholesale distribution networks we have already established, and it is an even easier decision to choose to be a CanPharm partner pharmacy.
