NACDS goes live with revamped online membership directory

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The National Association of Chain Drug Stores went live with a redesigned online membership directory that puts more than 22,000 NACDS retailer and supplier member contacts into members’ hands.



“The newly redesigned membership directory brings together two key aspects of what NACDS does so well — bringing together people within the industry and using technology to create the most user-friendly experience possible,” said NACDS president and CEO Steve Anderson.



Like the other features of NACDS.org, NACDS created the directory using responsive web design, which means that members can use the resource in a format that adjusts automatically for smart phones, tablets and computers.


After clicking on the “Chain Members” or “Associate Members” buttons within the directory, users can access information, including individual contact information, explanations of parent- and subsidiary-company relationships, and chains’ store- and pharmacy-counts and the states in which they operate. 

Authorized member company representatives can update company information through NACDS.org. NACDS has developed a guide to assist members in updating company information that appears in the directory.


“The timing of this relaunch is ideal, with the 2014 NACDS Total Store Expo nearing so quickly. The new and improved membership directory presents a taste of the value that NACDS delivers throughout the year,” Anderson said.

The NACDS Total Store Expo will be held August 23 to 26 in Boston.
