Cardinal Health 2008 Annual Report
Retailing Roadmap
Dave’s Pharmacy used the Retailing Roadmap
service from Cardinal Health to help design the
store layout, product placement, store identity
and signage for a front-of-store expansion that
resulted in additional revenues outside of the
traditional sales of prescription medicine.
Before becoming essential to hospitals by providing medical products and clinical technologies, Cardinal Health was essential
to pharmacies. It is the core of who we are and how we have become one of the largest healthcare companies in the world.
Retail and hospital pharmacies rely on Cardinal Health for our safe, secure and e icient supply chain to bring them the essential
prescription medicine for their patients.
But it is not as simple as transporting pharmaceuticals from point A to point B. Retail and mail-order pharmacies, such as
Hannaford Supermarkets, Wellpoint and Dave’s Pharmacy, use sophisticated supply chain technologies such as Cardinal
Inventory Manager, cardinal.com ordering, mobile inventory solutions and SOURCESM Generics to provide superior service to
their customers in the competitive retail pharmacy industry. As Cardinal Health helps improve productivity, independent and
chain pharmacies can continue to grow profits and revenue, while spending less time on administrative tasks and more time
providing care to patients. Cardinal Health is essential to supply chain e iciency.
