Partners
in Pharmacy Cooperative (PIPCo) is an independent pharmacy cooperative
owned and managed by its independent community pharmacy members in
the north-central United States. At
the cooperative's core is a mission to support and promote the profitability
of independents in a market dominated by chain stores. To achieve
its mission, PIPCo offers the following member benefits:
- A Voice in PIPCo Through Ownership
Each PIPCo member is a stockholder, owning the same number of shares
and possessing the same voting rights as all other members.
By combining the voices of its members, PIPCo is able to grant members
access to outstanding pharmaceutical and secondary contracts and discounts
which would be difficult for individual independents to attain on their
own.
In addition to access to exclusive contracts and discounts, the average
PIPCo member also earns over $8,000 annually simply by purchasing through
PIPCo's endorsed wholesaler, Cardinal Health - - without increasing
current volume or spending.
