HealthWarehouse.com (Ticker: HEWA) is a publicly traded online pharmacy based in Cincinnati, Ohio. As a United States government regulated pharmacy, we only sell products which are FDA approved and legal for sale in the United States. Our operations center around a state-of-the-art pharmacy capable of handling more than 3,000 prescriptions per day and we currently service more than 75,000 unique customers. Originally motivated by the lack of trustworthy and affordable online sources for prescription drugs, the goal from Day 1 was simple: reduce drug prices by removing layers of cost between the manufacturer and the end consumer. First, by procuring products directly from the manufacturer, we are able to cut out several levels of middlemen. Second, as an online pharmacy we aren’t burdened with the heavy overhead costs of traditional brick-and-mortar retail chains. The end result is that we are able to secure our products at a lower cost than our competitors and pass the savings on to you. In addition to offering the lowest prices, Healthwarehouse.com is relentlessly striving to enhance the customer experience and is committed to "doing whatever it takes to make it right." A 2009 and 2010 winner of BizRate's Circle Of Excellence Award given to the top 3% of more than 5,000 online merchants surveyed, HealthWarehouse.com does not believe that "service can be outsourced" to another country and handles all customer service functions in the USA.
