| Having just passed a 10 year anniversary,
FLAVORx is proud to report astronomical growth and outreach
during the past year. The privately-held company has attained
levels of success beyond imagination.
Bethesda, MD (PRWEB) July 12, 2006 - Company
representatives report FLAVORx will show record numbers this
year in revenue, associated pharmacies, physician and pharmacist
outreach and website hits. Since its inception in late 1995
as a one store family pharmacy flavoring just a handful of
medications per day, the company has grown to become a nationwide
phenomenon having now flavored over 50 million prescriptions
without any complication or changes in a medication’s
efficacy or even an allergy. In addition, with such unprecedented
success, the company has furthered its expansion into Canada
and Australia and is currently in talks with large pharmacy
chains in the United Kingdom.
It’s been a phenomenal year for us. We really couldn’t
be happier with the progress we’ve made and the presence
that we’ve created for ourselves in the industry. I
would have never expected in a million years that we would
be in the place that we are today.
According to President and CEO Kenny Kramm, "It’s
been a phenomenal year for us. We really couldn’t be
happier with the progress we’ve made and the presence
that we’ve created for ourselves in the industry. I
would have never expected in a million years that we would
be in the place that we are today."
FLAVORx welcomed the addition of two chain retail giants
this year. Both CVS and Wal-Mart made decisions to include
the FLAVORx system in all its pharmacies and its everyday
services for pharmacy patients. Working with these successful
retailers has jumped the number of pharmacies offering FLAVORx
up by nearly 8,000 pharmacies, further adding credibility
to the company name and making it easier for customers to
locate pharmacies that offer the FLAVORx service. Adding the
FLAVORx system to the pharmacy repertoire has allowed pharmacies
to continue to further advance their commitment to compliance
and patient care programs. The company now boasts nearly 35,000
independent and chain pharmacies nationwide including Wal-Mart,
Walgreens, Rite-Aid, Target, Giant/Eagle, Kmart, Longs, Safeway
and Albertsons. In fact FLAVORx is in almost 1 out of every
2 drugstores in the country.
The company introduced its "doctor-detailing" program
a few years ago in an effort to educate doctors and nurses
on the FLAVORx system. A productive 2005 has now jumped the
total number of visited doctors to nearly 60,000 nationwide.
The doctor detailing team supplies information to doctors,
nurses and all staff on the safety and efficacy of flavoring
medications with FLAVORx, as well as the importance of medicinal
compliance towards wellness and preventing the occurrence
of persistent symptoms and the further spread of infection.
In addition, doctor detailers provide educational materials,
as well as prescription pads and stickers as time-savers for
the physicians and nurses as they educate and recommend FLAVORx
for their patients.
Since its start as a homemade website www.flavorx.com
with just a few hits per day, FLAVORx has since professionally-designed
and optimized its website for parents, physicians, pharmacists
and hospitals. The website serves as a resource on flavoring
and taste and in the past year added an interactive chat service
that enables visitors to communicate with a FLAVORx representative
easily and immediately. Many of the FLAVORx employees are
online ready to answer questions -- in fact, CEO Kenny Kramm
and CFO Woodie Neiss have been known to answer many of the
incoming questions personally. Though the company has grown
at a rapid rate, even the company’s top executives still
make it a top priority to be personally attentive to the needs
of customers, healthcare practitioners and pharmacy partners.
With the website at around 80,000 hits per month last year,
the company is happy to report that interest is quickly spreading,
with nearly 2 million website hits during the month of May.
Numbers like these have brought thousands upon thousands of
unique visitors to the site daily.
The company’s commitment to safety and wellness has
fostered its success abroad, with nearly 1 in 3 pharmacies
in Canada offering the FLAVORx service, as well as an increasing
presence in Australia. In addition, continued talks with retailers
in the United Kingdom predict FLAVORx will be available in
Europe soon.
