HOLLYWOOD, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mixlab, the first modern full-service pet pharmacy, today announced their expansion into the southeast with a new pharmacy now open in Hollywood, Florida.
With 5 million more pets in the US since the pandemic, pet spending is expected to grow 8% annually and reach $368 billion by 20301. There’s more need than ever for a quick and reliable pharmacy partner. With the opening of a pharmacy in Florida, Mixlab will be able to provide even better service, coverage and delivery times across the United States, especially in the south. In addition to free next-day delivery, Mixlab will start offering free local pickup, and same-day delivery for an added fee within 30 miles of the pharmacy (from West Palm Beach to Miami), making it even more convenient for veterinarians and pet parents in Southeast Florida.
“When deciding where to go next, we looked into a multitude of factors,” explained Libby Loskota, Head of Sales and Marketing at Mixlab, “There’s so much opportunity in Southeast Florida to partner with veterinarians and serve the growing pet population with fast and free pet med delivery. We have aggressive growth goals for the rest of 2023 and are really looking forward to growing our presence in the south.”
“Florida has over 2000 clinics, 4000 veterinarians and 4 million households with pets. Looking at the overall landscape, there’s so much potential for us!” said Fred Dijols, CEO of Mixlab.
From a proprietary prescription management platform to a partner API that connects external practice management systems into Mixlab’s pharmacy, Mixlab is disrupting the veterinary pharmacy space by utilizing technology to make it easier for veterinarians and pet parents to prescribe and get medications quickly.
This expansion announcement comes on the heels of Mixlab’s recent round of funding. In an environment where many companies are having a challenging time, Mixlab secured a $10M funding round led by Vanterra Ventures, with participation from Lakehouse Ventures and others, a testament to the potential that lays ahead.
