Independent pharmacy



An independent pharmacy is a retail pharmacy that is not directly affiliated with any chain pharmacy, such as CVS/pharmacy, Walgreens or Eckerd. However, owners of independent pharmacies will often form alliances with other independents and use their power in numbers to bargain for price discounts from drug wholesalers, group advertise to cut down costs, etc. Independent pharmacy owners generally have high standards of customer service and strive to outperform chain pharmacy competitors.
