Our take

NimbleRx is a logistics tech app aiming to improve medication access for customers across the US by partnering with local pharmacies to facilitate prescription deliveries via the app, similar to ordering an Uber. This service aligns with the growing consumer preference for on-demand home delivery, a trend that has accelerated during the pandemic.

NimbleRx's significant growth was catalyzed by its 2021 partnership with Uber, leveraging Uber's extensive network to expand its footprint across the US. This partnership not only boosted NimbleREx's visibility and reach but also contributed to a remarkable revenue of $1B in 2021, highlighting the synergy between the two companies in the healthcare delivery space.

The partnership with Uber will enable NimbleRxc to secure collaborations with larger pharmacy chains, positioning it to attract a broader customer base just below industry giants like Walgreens Boots Alliance and CVS Health. these alliances are crucial for NimbleRx to remain competitive as these major players develop their own prescription delivery services.
