Company mission

To modernise the slow, outdated, and expensive pharmacy supply chain – getting pharmacies and their patients the right medicines at the right time. We help these critical institutions thrive so they can better focus on the patient – and have big future plans to work with hospitals and to develop the platform internationally.

Our take

Supply issues are nothing new. In healthcare settings, however, inefficiencies and errors in stock management can have grave repercussions. On top of this, pharmacies and hospitals are often tied down by cumbersome legacy systems that make improving stock management systems a difficult task. StockRx, a new inventory management platform, is hoping to help the medical sector bring its practices up to speed.

Precisely what StockRx’s platform will look like once it comes to fruition remains to be seen. The outline, however, looks set to solve some major healthcare stock management issues. The solution promises to automatically forecast demand and restock from the most competitively priced supplier, reducing the bloated costs of inefficient ordering. In addition, StockRx is promising a low-tech, sensor-free way of accurately carrying out stock checks.

The past few years have highlighted the precarious position that healthcare settings can be put in by supply chain issues and stock shortages. So StockRx’s promises of an automated, effective, and money-saving solution are likely to be much welcomed.
