Rising Stronger – Celebrating the Galt Journey and Embracing the Future
By Barry Patel, CEO and Co-Founder
As 2024 draws to a close, we take a moment to reflect on an extraordinary year that marks a turning point in our journey. After eight years of perseverance, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to helping patients, 2024 has been our best year yet at Galt Companies.
Galt’s story is one of resilience and determination. As a self-funded company, we’ve faced significant challenges, from navigating the complexities of the pharmaceutical industry to weathering the storm of the Covid-19 pandemic. While the early days tested our resolve, they also defined who we are today—a company built on the foundation of grit, adaptability, and a steadfast mission to serve patients with innovative, non-opioid, non-addictive pain management solutions.
The pandemic was a particularly difficult chapter, as it limited our ability to connect directly with healthcare providers and disrupted many of our traditional avenues for growth. Rather than retreat, we used those challenges to strengthen our core by finding ways to diversify our approaches to the market. We invested in building robust systems, refining our processes, and aligning our operations to support our unique model—one that prioritizes collaboration with entrepreneurs and local, community-based independent pharmacies. We emerged from those challenging times stronger and more prepared for the opportunities ahead.
And what a year 2024 has been! This year, we added Tolectin®DS to our Norgesic® promotions to give healthcare providers ‘muscle or bone’ options in providing effective pain relief without the risks associated with opioids. We also expanded our distribution network, welcoming new franchisees and independent pharmacy partners who share our vision and values. These collaborations bring our medications to more patients and communities across the country. Additionally, we undertook a comprehensive upgrade of our CRM platforms, empowering our sales professionals and franchisees with cutting-edge tools to better serve healthcare providers and ensure that our products reach those who need them most.
While 2024 has been a banner year, we know it’s just the beginning. The foundation we’ve laid over the past eight years positions us for even greater achievements in the years to come. Our journey continues as we are more motivated than ever to innovate, collaborate, and make a meaningful impact in the lives of patients. To our team, our franchisees, our distributors, our independent pharmacy partners, and all our supporters: thank you for believing in our vision and for being part of this incredible journey. As we look ahead to 2025 and beyond, we do so with excitement and confidence that the best is yet to come.
Here’s to rising stronger together!
