The Florida Retail Federation Pharmacy Council is an influential voice with legislators and regulatory agencies and the only advocate for pharmacy retailers in the Florida Capitol.

FRF advocates for its members year-round to expand the scope of practice for pharmacist, decrease any over-burdensome regulation, and promote policies that increase access to healthcare.

The Pharmacy Council is made up of Florida’s largest retail pharmacy brands. Council members work collaboratively to direct FRF advocacy efforts on behalf of the pharmacy industry.
