- Best Exterior Sign – Webb’s Family Pharmacy in Rochester, Ind.

“Independent pharmacies have always been ahead of the curve when it comes to business model innovations, care and other services that make patients’ experience more rewarding, but this has never been more on display than during the coronavirus pandemic,” said Kurt Proctor, president of the NCPA Innovation Center. The awards, sponsored by QS/1, were created four years ago to recognize pharmacies for their efforts to enhance their value, promote their services and better serve clients. The NCPA received 79 submissions for the awards. Three independent judges reviewed the submissions and selected the winners.
