The stores carry brand names and generic versions in order to provide the best price available. Because it is a group enterprize and buys in volume, there is a bigger range of medicines. If the local store doesn’t have what you need, they can get it from the home office within one day.
In addition, they offer weekly promotions that save the customer money. There are four ways to order medicine: walk in between 8am-8 pm every day; online- email lapenita@farmaciapvr.com; social media, or whatsapp 322 197 4132.
General manager Hector Lopez comments “Our success is based on our commitment to total customer satisfaction and providing top quality products.” Farmacia PVR started as a niche store that focused on tourist needs and all of the branches are in Mexican tourist locations. Due to this focus, the stores carry a huge selection of sun blocks, bandages, stomach upset medicines as well as common perscriptions for chronic conditions such as diabetes.
Rubi has become knowlegeable concerning the uses of the various medicine and can contact the home office pharmacist to clarify for the customer. The author recently needed several less common medicines that other drug stores on the avenida did not carry and Rubi was able to get them from PV in a matter of hours.
Win/win for the customer!
While Farmacia PVR states on their company website “PVR strives to contribute to the well-being of people, offering reliable and highest quality health products. Our mission is taking care of the health of our clients, offering them a friendly and professional service…” each store is only as good as it’s employees.
