About Rexall

Retail Pharmacies
5001-10,000

With a heritage dating back more than 100 years, Rexall has evolved to become one of Canada's most trusted pharmacy brands.

Our legacy of helping Canadians has endured through successive evolutions of Rexall and Rexall Pharma Plus, from the apothecary-type drugstores to the modern community pharmacies we are today. Rexall in Canada was established in 1904 in the early days of the United Drug Company and quickly established itself as an innovator in retail pharmacy. At the same time, Tamblyn Drugs was establishing itself in Toronto, Ontario, and would eventually become Pharma Plus.

This progression has led us where we are today, a proud member of the McKesson family ranked seventh on the Fortune 500 and the industry's oldest, largest, most experienced and sophisticated pharmaceutical distributor.

At Rexall, our employees are family, and our culture reflects a close-knit community. From coast to coast, from retail store to Support Centre, we are ALL IN!

A lot may have changed over the years, but our commitment to helping Canadian families and communities be healthier has never been stronger. This vision continues to guide us as we look to the future and increase access to convenient, quality healthcare and products that Canadians can feel good about.

Our 390+ Rexall and Rexall Pharma Plus locations are supported by 7,000 staff dedicated to providing exceptional service and care in 180 communities across Canada. From providing vaccinations such as flu, COVID-19 * or other services within the expanding scopes of pharmacy care. Or offering exclusive daily living products that can help put you on a healthy path, Rexall is focused on continuously evolving to meet the changing needs of our patients and customers.

Rexall is a member of the Rexall Pharmacy Group ULC., a wholly-owned subsidiary of McKesson Corporation.

*Where regulations permit pharmacists to administer the flu vaccinations.
