In the second installment of our 3-part KeySource Series on the Pharmacy Podcast Network, Andrew Crawford, VP of Sales & Marketing at KeySource, joins Todd Eury to explore one of the most urgent priorities for regional and national chain pharmacies — supplier alignment as a driver of strategic growth.
With NACDS TSE right around the corner, this conversation takes a hard look at the pressures chains face today — from unpredictable PBM reimbursements and restrictive PVA contracts to the operational ripple effects of even a single NDC disruption. At chain scale, where central fill and automation keep thousands of prescriptions moving daily, stability, flexibility, and strategic control are non-negotiable.
In this episode, we cover:

The State of Chains: How PBM volatility, slim PVA margins, and supply continuity challenges are reshaping priorities.
The Shift Toward Supplier Alignment: Why leading chains are moving beyond rigid structures to build strategic, responsive partnerships.
How KeySource Supports Chain Growth: From NDC continuity to opportunistic buys, primary award support, and autonomy beyond PVA constraints.
Strategic Support Beyond the Product: The downstream impact of supply instability — and how proactive supplier partnerships mitigate risk.
Looking Ahead to NACDS TSE: How to turn supplier relationships into a competitive edge.

Whether you manage a regional chain or lead procurement for a national brand, this episode unpacks the supplier strategies that can protect your operations, enable growth, and strengthen your competitive position in a volatile market.
📍 Attending NACDS TSE? Visit KeySource at Booth #3523 to discuss supply chain alignment, growth strategies, and new value opportunities for your pharmacy network.

In this episode of Pharmacy Crossroads, Bruce Kneeland shares examples of simple, effective and affordable marketing, advertising and management tools he has seen others use. The real lesson, according to Kneeland, is that marketing is essential to a modern pharmacies success. But he also feels that not all marketing need involve buying ads or spending large sums of money. Grass Roots Marketing, that is getting out, being creative and responding to local opportunities is a great way to grow.
