LMAO The original owner sold the brick and mortar retail pharmacy in 2007 after over 30 years of ownership. Don't you think he may have simply wanted to retire???
The new owner, Malecon, expanded the business by adding a specialty pharmacy business with both mail order and van delivery.
Get it through your head. This is more than a brick and mortar store. The specialty pharmacy is a totally separate business division from the retail store. The only thing Wallgreens and CVS have going for them is their size. Are you saying it's useless for smaller competitors to get into the business, even if they can offer better and unique services?
I've researched both Walgreens and CVS's specialty pharmacy offerings. Neither of them have anything like a Malecon Pack, which is individually customized packets of medications labeled with the date and time each patient needs to take them.
This kind of packaging would be highly valued by elderly patients, their doctors, nursing homes, long term and acute care facilities, and hospitals.
Neither of the big pharmacies offer anything like Central Fill...

By aggregating prescriptions from different providers for an HMO, the pharmacy is able to order these meds in bulk and pass on savings to the HMO.
They also offer some unique services for physicians...
I challenge you to find these things covered by Wallgreens or CVS.
