New sign-ups for PharmX
September 9, 2010
INTERNET based pharmacy
ordering gateway PharmX has
announced the sign-up of five new
suppliers to its system including
Chemplus, Clifford Hallam
Healthcare, Doward International,
Independent Pharmacy Supplies,
and Terry White Management.
Brad Lumb, PhamX general
manager, said that the new
partnerships mean that
pharmacies now have a greater
choice for online product ordering.
“The PharmX gateway is
currently the most efficient and
reliable way for pharmacy to
purchase and manage stock,” said
Lumb.
“Our goal is to provide
pharmacies with one window to all
the suppliers that they need, and
this widening of our supplier base
is an important part of achieving
this,” he added.
PharmX also confirmed that it
had reached a milestone of one
million gateway transactions
throughout Jul and Aug, a year on
year increase of 25%.
“This reflects a steady increase
in pharmacy usage of electronic
ordering over the past twelve
months, with 3,670 pharmacies
now using the gateway (up from
3,400 at this time last year) and
24 suppliers now on-line,” the
company said.
Lumb attributed the growth to
an “increased recognition of the
business efficiencies that ordering
online provides.
“Pharmacies are seeing just how
efficient and reliable electronic
ordering is for purchasing and
managing stock,” he said.
