In celebration of American Pharmacist Month, we shine a spotlight on Lydell, the dedicated owner of Crosstown Pharmacy. His story exemplifies how timely financial support can help a thriving business overcome short-term challenges and continue serving its community.
The Challenge of Success
Crosstown Pharmacy found itself in a situation many growing businesses face: high demand leading to low inventory. While this is a positive sign of a thriving business, it came with a cash flow challenge. Lydell was facing a three-week wait for incoming payments, leaving him unable to restock his rapidly depleting inventory.
Specialized Care Meets Financial Need
Crosstown Pharmacy isn't just any drugstore. Specializing in homeopathic and herbal remedies, it offers patient-centered care and impeccable service. Lydell's commitment to his patients' health and education is more than just a business model—it's a reflection of his personal values and what has shaped him as an individual and a business owner.
