New web site for UK generics and PIs

31 August 2000

September 4 saw the launch of a new web site in the UK,www.PharmacyBargains.com, to help the country's 8,000 independent pharmacists source generics and parallel-imported drugs from several suppliers and manufacturers, initially from Generics UK, Norton Healthcare, Dominion Pharma, DDSA Pharmaceuticals, Pharmacia, Stevenden Healthcare, Stephar (UK) and Waymade Healthcare, with more expected to join.

PharmacyBargains.com says the new web site is the only one in the UK where pharmacists can search for the best-priced generics and parallel imports from both manufacturers and suppliers. It will also offer suppliers the chance to reach those pharmacies not normally covered by their sales teams.

According to the company, PharmacyBargains.com also tells the pharmacists if they are close to a price break to get an even better deal. When pharmacists are ready, it adds, they simply click to buy and the goods will usually be delivered within one or two working days. Moreover, the company is offering an opening bonus of up to L100 ($147) cashback, and a chance to win an Internet-ready PC.
