We are thrilled to announce that a new community-owned pharmacy will be opening at Chief Louis Crossing in Spring 2025.
Our dedicated team is eager to hear from the community and interest-holders to ensure the pharmacy meets your needs. Guided by an approved business plan, our focus is on providing trusted, convenient services, creating quality career opportunities, and fostering TteS business synergies and economic growth.
To ensure a successful launch and smooth licensing process, Sc.wénwen Economic Development (formerly known as TteS Business & Economic Development) consulted with several pharmacists to determine the optimal ownership and management structure. We are pleased to announce that Lakeside Scripts has been chosen as our partner for this Pharmacy business. They currently manage three pharmacies and provide services to two others, working closely with nine First Nations and Indigenous communities.
The project is spearheaded by Sc.wénwen Economic Development, in partnership with VisionQuest Advisors and Lakeside Scripts. This dynamic group officially launched the project in late April and has started engaging with interest-holders.
Chief Louis Crossing is the ideal location for a new pharmacy, enhancing the complex as your one-stop destination for groceries, gas, and more.
