History
On August 2004, two companies - Groupe Essaim and Gestion Santé Services Obonsoins Inc - regrouped to form Groupe PharmEssor. The three pharmacy chains affected by this merger - Essaim, Obonsoins and Santé Services - were initially kept separate and intact by PharmEssor. However on February 2006, PharmEssor consolidated all of its operations under a single banner, Proxim, hence eliminating the previous banners. The name "Proxim" was inspired from the word "proximity" to describe the group's great accessibility to pharmaceutical cares.
One year after the creation of Proxim, the Proximed banner was created on February 2007. Thus, an estimate of 31 selected locations operate today under the name Proximed.
On June 19, 2008, McKesson Canada acquired Proxim.
