“Prescription delivery is revolutionizing the way people interact with their chosen pharmacy,” said Spencer Turbitt, co-founder and CEO of iApotheca. “We would like to thank Leva Capital, York Angels, and Valhalla Angels for their investment in our company. Their investment and advice are allowing us to accelerate our plans to achieve our vision for the pharmacy delivery space.”

iApotheca specializes in streamlining pharmacy operations, particularly in prescription delivery service, to help pharmacies grow their revenue. In recent years, the demand for prescription delivery has seen a sharp rise. iApotheca’s EconoRoute™ prescription delivery software supports the demand with an easy-to-use, low-cost, one-stop solution for pharmacies of all sizes.

“Leva Capital is thrilled to announce the addition of iApotheca into our investment portfolio,” said Eddie Gobran, Managing Partner. “Their strategy aligns with our vision of investing in health technology that will improve the healthcare experience for Canadians. We are confident in iApotheca’s team to execute their strategy and deliver a great experience to pharmacies across Canada.”

EconoRoute™ includes features that make it an ideal delivery solution for any business. Its unique physics-based instant routing and real-time driver tracking are high-performance tools. Built-in pay-at-the-door functionality also makes it easy for businesses to track accounting.

iApotheca’s years of expertise in supporting pharmacies in doing business more efficiently make EconoRoute™ more than just another prescription delivery service.
