Edward Leung raises Pharmasave sign at 491 Eglinton W

Pharmacist Lawrence Leung has opened a new drugstore under the Pharmasave brand at 491 Eglinton Ave. West in the Forest Hill Medical and Professional Building at the corner of Tarlton Road. Pharmasave is an association of 450 stores across Canada by which independent druggists gain some brand recognition for their practices and the advantage of group buying. The website says the brand was founded in 1981 but it seems to be a relatively recent spurt of growth that has seen the Pharmasave sign popping up around town. Among the services offered by Mr. Leung is free delivery. He is joined at the Eglinton location by pharmacists Laura Shapiro and To Ha. There’s a Pharmasave on Yonge between Rosehill and Jackes as well as one in the East General Hospital. Map of Toronto locations
