History

Established in 1999.

Plain City Druggist was started from scratch in 1999 after Plain City had gone without a drugstore for 7 years. We originally started out in a small space in Lovejoy Plaza in downtown Plain City. In 2007, we relocated to our current location at 480 South Jefferson Avenue. We built a new building with much more space and added a compounding suite (Midwestern Compounding Pharmacy). We are just across the street from Der Dutchman Restaurant.

After attending and ownership workshop and being mentored by his friend, Ernie Sparks, Joe began looking for pharmacies to purchase. When none materialized, he decided to start Plain City Druggist from scratch. Plain City Druggist has been named «Small Business of the Year» by the Union County Chamber of Commerce.
