Pharmasave

Pharmasave

Pharmasave, which has been in operation since 1981, currently serves as a banner for over 400 independently owned pharmacies across Canada. The corporation is separated into 5 regions: Pacific, Western, Central, Ontario, and Atlantic. Pharmasave's business model is one of self-governance, where pharmacy owners are elected to serve on its regional Boards of Directors. This way, the needs of the owners are served by other owners, and not by a separate corporate entity. The success of this model has played an important part in the attracting of new members and its growing store count across the country. However, there are a number of emerging stores that are under corporate control, mainly in its Pacific region.

Pharmasave was created in 1981 through the merger of two British Columbia-based pharmacy chains, United Pharmacy and Western Drug Mart. Its head office is located in Langley, British Columbia.
