Wholesale Alliance LLC

In 1996, the Wholesale Alliance LLC was formed by an interested group of regional pharmaceutical wholesalers in an effort to leverage the collective strengths and interests of the country's retail community pharmacies.  Using the banner of Pharmacy First, its goal is to enhance the financial position of independent pharmacy by developing a variety of programs that encourage patient compliance, promote new product awareness, and gain access to programs previously offered exclusively to chain pharmacies.

The Wholesale Alliance LLC is governed by a Board of Managers which includes:

Larry Doud, CEO – Rochester Drug, Rochester NY
Bill Bodinger – Kinray, Whitestone NY
Gene Tyler – Value Drug Co, Altoona PA
Chris Mitiguy – Burlington Drug Co, Burlington VT
