Each Shareholder Has An Equal Voice

As a cooperative wholesale, each uniPHARM shareholder member has an equal voice and share in our profits. In the interest of maintaining a healthy cooperative, our policy has always been "One store. One share. One vote."

We are governed by a Board of Directors that is responsible for uniPHARM's policies and direction. The Board has six shareholder members who are elected each year by their colleagues at the Annual General Meeting. To give all shareholders a chance to communicate and dialogue on matters of concern, we hold regional Board meetings on a regular basis.

uniPHARM's General Manager reports directly to the Board. Department managers report to one of three Management Directors, and the Management Directors report back to the General Manager. uniPHARM employs full and part-time employees in the office as well as key management and supervisory staff in the warehouse.

Our shareholder members collectively control the direction of uniPHARM. Dedicated to the growth and viability of their wholesale company, they support our cooperative philosophy and work closely with uniPHARM to guarantee success. Shareholder commitment ensures that vendor relations are stable, dependable and valuable. Manufacturers know they receive full value when dealing with uniPHARM because we offer a large and dedicated buying group. In return, uniPHARM and our shareholders benefit from an improved buying power that allows us to negotiate the best possible pricing and enhanced programs from our suppliers.
