Vetsource has launched its fourth pharmacy location, adding an Atlanta facility to its existing pharmacies in Portland, Oregon; Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; and Northlake, Texas.
The new location expands Vetsource’s nationwide infrastructure, creating a four-pharmacy network designed to support future growth and improve the pet owner experience without compromising speed or accuracy.
The company said the Atlanta pharmacy will improve shipping times for customers in the Southeast, one of its largest markets.
“This is our fastest ramp-up of any pharmacy location to date,” said Yili Malech, vice president of pharmacy operations. “Expanding our footprint quickly allows us to get significantly closer to our customers.”
