A friend has just started a new business, this time, it's a pharmacy. He told me that while business is still so new and profit is not forthcoming yet but he is staying positive. Right now, he is procuring medical accessories like pedometers in bulk for savings. 

Besides, he told me that profit margin is big for supplements and medication and he hopes that he could use this profit to cover the cost of postage, through online sales. 

HHmm that sounds like a tough business environment but since he is so optimistic, I wish him all the best!
