What is PioneerRx?

PioneerRx got its start in 2008 in small-town Shreveport, Louisiana. In a little over 10 years, it’s expanded to 47 states and operated in 5,000 independent pharmacies. PioneerRx’s growth has only accelerated after it was acquired by RedSail Technologies in late 2020.

PioneerRx is currently headquartered in Irving, TX under the leadership of President Jeff Key. Then and now, though, PioneerRx’s mission is to Save + Revitalize Independent Pharmacy. This is accomplished through software solutions, outreach efforts, and side projects, like PioneerRx’s Catalyst Pharmacy Podcast.
