This is PharmaCorp’s third acquisition including the successful completion of its June 6, 2024 Qualifying Transaction which included the PharmaChoice Canada Inc. (“PharmaChoice Canada”) strategic alliance and the acquisition of a 75% interest in a pharmacy in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

“We are pleased to announce the Acquisition, marking a significant milestone as our third acquisition. This Acquisition exemplifies the strength of our strategic alliance with PharmaChoice Canada, which provided a smooth succession plan for a valued PharmaChoice Canada member looking to retire, while preserving the legacy built on hard work. With this Acquisition, we have ensured continuity by retaining key team members, including the managing pharmacist and the front store manager, to maintain the high standards of service our customers rely on. The Acquisition not only highlights our commitment to strategic growth, but also reinforces our dedication to safeguarding the legacies within the independent pharmacy community,” stated Al Simpson, Executive Chairperson, PharmaCorp.
