Banner Pharmacy
What is a Banner Pharmacy?
A banner pharmacy is a way to be an independent pharmacy owner, while still receiving the support of a banner brand: giving you more freedom.
When you own one of our banner pharmacies you’re owning your own pharmacy independently with us in your corner, guiding you through every step. With the support and resources provided through our banner program, you can build your own brand and reputation to create a successful and thriving pharmacy.
So, you get the benefit of owning your own pharmacy independently, while also receiving full banner support, with no banner fees.
Banner Pharmacy Vs Franchise
Owning a banner pharmacy sounds a lot like owning a franchise, so what’s the difference?
Banner Pharmacy: When you own a pharmacy under a banner group, you are provided with support from us with joint advertising and promotional options. You independently own your pharmacy and are not associated with a parent company.
Franchise: With a franchise, you own a pharmacy under a parent company name, with your brand, trademark, and business system already in place.
Owning a banner pharmacy gives you more freedom, and the ability to have your own brand, identity and control over the business.

Banner Pharmacy Frequently Asked Questions
Banner Pharmacy is a pharmacy that is owned under a specific banner brand, while maintaining independence in running your pharmacy your way.
A Banner and a Franchise are two different types of business models. A Banner is a group of independent businesses that operate under a common brand name and marketing strategy.
These businesses are independently owned and operated but benefit from Banner’s collective purchasing power and marketing efforts.
On the other hand, a Franchise is a business model where a company grants the right to use its trademark, products, and business processes to an individual or group of individuals in exchange for a fee. The franchisee must follow the franchisor’s established business model and guidelines in running their business.
