Sustainable pill packaging maker Parcel Health names RICHARDS Pharma Solutions as its exclusive distributor in Canada

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Pittsburgh, Pa. – After developing a substantial customer base in Canada, Parcel Health has designated RICHARDS Pharma Solutions as the country’s sole supplier of Parcel’s eco-friendly pill box. Since Parcel’s founding in 2020, Canada has quickly grown into one of its most promising markets. The fully recyclable and biodegradable Phill Box® is made from paperboard that has been certified by the Forest Stewardship Council as a green alternative to plastic pill bottles. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Parcel has signed an exclusive distribution contract with RICHARDS Pharma Solutions that applies to sales in Canada.

RICHARDS Pharma Solutions is a trusted Canadian partner offering a full range of products, services and cutting-edge expertise on automation and specialized packaging for community and hospital pharmacies. RICHARDS Pharma Solutions is recognized for its innovative and efficient Rx containers, designed with a focus on patient well-being, the needs of health professionals and compliance with the pharmaceutical industry’s strict safety standards.

“Parcel is excited to partner with Canada’s premier prescription packaging supplier.” - Mallory Barrett, President & Co-founder

By collaborating with RICHARDS, Parcel can now offer Canadian pharmacies better access and an improved customer experience. With RICHARDS, customers now have the option to order the Phill Box® directly from a domestic supplier, creating a streamlined and more rapid delivery process.

“Last year, we had a huge influx of interest from Canadian pharmacies, but we struggled to service them optimally due to export logistics,” Parcel Co-founder and President Mallory Barrett said. “Many of our prospective customers in Canada have only had great things to say about their experience purchasing from RICHARDS. This new partnership will allow us to better service Canadian pharmacies and expand access to pharmacies across the entire country.”

“We are excited to offer our customers a new line of pharmacy packaging. Parcel Health’s product range is a perfect fit for us. We recognize the demand for eco-friendly solutions, and we're proud to offer a line of packaging that sets the new standard in sustainable packaging.” - Michael Bussiere, Senior Vice President at RICHARDS Pharma Solutions.
