Yesterday we visited a pharmacy chain in Chiang Mai called Fascino that was started by a Chiang Mai University graduate. It was an impressive operation that not only sold medicine and medical supplies, but was also a distribution center for the area. They had a retail section on the first floor that had everything from medical grade oxygen to hospital beds you could purchase. Floors 2 through 4 housed the distribution center. The company is relatively new and has grown very quickly to over 80 locations throughout Thailand. They even plan to expand to all 77 provinces in Thailand in the next 5 years and have plans to go international after that. They are an inspiring company for entrepreneurially minded people like myself.
The second floor of the distribution center.
This section contained drugs that are all prescription only on the US. They are all available without one here and some of these (amiodarone and digoxin) can quickly kill you if you don't know what you are doing.
I also found testosterone vials you can purchase. Available for roughly $100 per box. Right next to the adrenaline, for the optimum workout session.
The manager of the whole operation. She is 72.
