Feature Story

Over 75 years ago, a young pharmacist with irrepressible entrepreneurial spirit, borrowed $500 and opened a pharmacy in Queens, New York. The young man was Henry Schein.

Henry Schein and his wife, Esther, grew their small pharmacy into a thriving enterprise based on the belief that affordable, high-quality merchandise and excellent customer service were the building blocks of a successful business. Today, Henry Schein, Inc. has grown from that small storefront pharmacy into a FORTUNE 500® company, the largest distributor of healthcare products and services to office-based practitioners in the combined North American and European markets. Our Company now employs more than 12,000 Team Schein Members worldwide.

Today we remain committed to serving our customers, supplier partners, investors, society, and Team Schein—and firmly believe that our best years are yet to come.
