Louisiana Wholesale Drug Company was founded in 1979 when a group of Louisiana independent pharmacists recognized the need to form a company that could consolidate purchasing, maximize pricing, and offer wholesaler equity, thereby enhancing their representation and control in the marketplace.
In the past 35 years LWD has grown from 51 pharmacists to 170 stockholders serving over 250 stores and is one of the top five privately held companies in the Acadiana region. The physical facility reached capacity at 40,000 square feet in 2001. Today an additional 26,144 square feet is currently being added on.
