What Levic does

Levic (legal name: Distribuidora Levic S. de R.L. de C.V.) is a privately held Mexican pharmaceutical distributor founded by Lic. Víctor Soto Peralta and headquartered in Tultitlán, Estado de México. The company specializes in the storage, distribution, and sale of generic medications, patented (de patente) pharmaceuticals, OTC products, and wound care supplies, commercializing more than 4,500-5,000 SKUs sourced through commercial alliances with 150 national and transnational laboratories including ALLEN, APOTEX, ALPHARMA, FERRER, HORMONA, LIOMONT, NOVAG, PERRIGO, and SYNTHON. Levic serves more than 10,000 customers across independent and chain pharmacies, clinics, hospitals, government health agencies, regional distributors, and individual healthcare professionals, with claimed 100% coverage of the Mexican Republic.

The company operates an integrated distribution network organized into nine regional divisions, comprising eight CEDIS (Centros de Distribución) and eight sales/marketing offices that enable 24-48 hour free delivery nationwide. Its flagship facility, CEDIS Vallejo, is positioned as the first robotic distribution center in Mexico and serves as corporate headquarters, supported by satellite-based vehicle tracking, environmental controls (storage below 30°C and humidity below 65% RH), and cold chain infrastructure maintaining 2-8°C compliant with NOM-059-SSA1-2015. Levic holds COFEPRIS Aviso de Funcionamiento across all CEDIS and Licencia Sanitaria for biological medications and psychotropic medications across Fractions II, III, IV, V, and VI — meaningful regulatory credentials in temperature-controlled and controlled-substance distribution.

The business model is fundamentally transactional pharmaceutical distribution with a multi-channel go-to-market: dedicated field sales executives assigned to each customer, inside sales via telemarketing, and a 24/7 self-serve e-commerce platform at levicventas.mx. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed due to COFEPRIS requirements mandating client registration, RFC tax registration, and sanitary documentation prior to purchase, with some CEDIS enforcing a 500-peso minimum order. The company remains founder-controlled with no disclosed external institutional investors, parent company, or capital market activity in the available source material.

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• McKesson: Largest US-based pharmaceutical distributor with established Mexican operations (including former Prosalud franchise network). Comparable to Levic as a global incumbent in pharma distribution with national logistics, broad laboratory relationships, and significant government and institutional procurement exposure.
• Cencora (AmerisourceBergen / Alliance Healthcare): Global pharmaceutical distribution leader that operates in Mexico through Alliance Healthcare and other channels. Comparable as a broad incumbent in pharmaceutical wholesaling with multi-regional infrastructure, broader purchasing power, and overlapping customer types including pharmacies, hospitals, and government.

Emerging players

• Genomma Lab: Mexican consumer-pharmaceutical manufacturer with significant OTC and generic presence sold through pharmacies and distributors nationwide. Indirectly comparable through Mexican market overlap, laboratory relationships, and pharmacy-channel coverage that competes for the same retail shelf space Levic supplies.
• PiSA Farmacéutica: Mexican pharmaceutical company combining manufacturing with selected distribution channels into hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies. Comparable through overlapping Mexican footprint, cold-chain capabilities, and customer types, though PiSA is primarily a manufacturer while Levic is a pure distributor.

Regional players

• Farmacias Benavides: Mexican retail pharmacy chain that also operates pharmaceutical distribution and procurement at scale. Comparable to Levic through its pharmacy-channel orientation and direct pharmaceutical sourcing, though it integrates retail rather than operating as a pure wholesaler.
• Grupo Fragua (Farmacias del Dr. Simi): Mexican retail pharmacy chain with significant in-house pharmaceutical procurement and distribution infrastructure. Comparable through Mexican geographic focus and pharmacy-channel supply, though Grupo Fragua is retailer-led rather than a dedicated wholesaler.

Direct peers

• Distribuidora Marzam (Casa Marzam): One of the largest pharmaceutical distributors in Mexico, offering broad catalogs to pharmacies, hospitals, and government accounts with nationwide logistics. Directly comparable to Levic on product mix (generics and patented), customer base (pharmacies, hospitals, government), and national-coverage distribution model.
• Droguería y Farmacia El Globo: Mexican pharmaceutical distributor serving retail pharmacies, clinics, and hospitals with nationwide reach and broad catalog. Direct peer to Levic on core distribution business, customer base, and Mexican operating geography.
• Profarma (Grupo Profarma): Historical Mexican pharmaceutical specialty distributor focused on pharmacy chains and institutional customers with broad generics and patented portfolios. Direct peer on customer base (retail pharmacies and clinics) and product mix, though the brand has been largely absorbed into Casa Saba/Marzam over time.
• Fármacos Nacionales (Droguería y Distribuidora): Mexican pharmaceutical wholesaler distributing generics and patented medications to pharmacies, hospitals, and government accounts. Direct peer to Levic on product mix, customer types, and Mexican distribution model, operating in overlapping regions of the country.
