Mixlab expands pet pharmacy services to Southeast with new Florida location
Mixlab, the first modern full-service pet pharmacy, announces its expansion into the southeast with the opening of a new pharmacy in Hollywood, Florida. Amid a pandemic-driven increase of five million pets in the US, pet spending is expected to grow by 8% annually and reach $368 billion by 2030. Mixlab aims to meet this surging demand by improving service, coverage, and delivery times, particularly in the southern United States.

According to Libby Loskota, Head of Sales and Marketing at Mixlab, the Hollywood, Florida location was strategically chosen to partner with local veterinarians and serve the burgeoning pet population. “We looked into multiple factors, and there’s so much opportunity in Southeast Florida. We have aggressive growth goals for 2023 and are excited to expand our southern presence,” said Loskota. The new location offers free local pickup and same-day delivery for an added fee within a 30-mile radius, covering areas from West Palm Beach to Miami.
Florida’s Pet Landscape Creates Massive Potential for Mixlab
Fred Dijols, CEO of Mixlab, points to the significant potential in Florida, which boasts over 2,000 clinics, 4,000 veterinarians, and four million households with pets. “The overall landscape shows immense growth potential for our services,” Dijols stated. Mixlab is uniquely positioned to disrupt the pet pharmacy space through its proprietary technology, which streamlines prescription management for veterinarians and pet owners alike.
Mixlab’s Expansion Supported by Recent $10M Funding Round
This latest expansion comes on the heels of Mixlab securing a $10 million funding round led by Vanterra Ventures, with participation from Lakehouse Ventures, underscoring the significant market potential. “In a challenging environment, securing this funding round is a testament to the opportunities ahead for Mixlab,” Dijols added.
