I would highly recommend Edinpharm as a buying group. They are a true member organisation that listens carefully to what members want and do their best to ensure running a pharmacy is as easy and as profitable as possible. Members are also keen to support each other to everyone’s mutual benefit.
Our company has been a member of Edinpharm since around 2008 and during that time we have been delighted to see it go from strength to strength, steadily improving what the group offers to members.
A buying group needs to offer excellent prices but also make it easy to access those prices and I have always found this to be the case. A buying group also needs to be lean so it doesn’t just become another cost to your business – again, Edinpharm has always been focussed on exactly this.
