This is our legacy and one of the inspirations behind our brand!!!

Hamlin Drug Store was the oldest pharmacy both in Raleigh and in North Carolina, as well as being the state's oldest Black-owned pharmacy.

Captain James Edwards Hamlin, a Shaw University graduate, opened the People's Drug Store in 1904 on 13 East Hargett Street. He renamed it Hamlin Drug Company in 1907 after buying out his partner.
In 1921, he moved the business to the first floor of the Lightner Arcade Hotel.

In 1957, Clarence C. Coleman and John M. Johnson purchased the drugstore from the Hamlin family.

In 1963, the business was relocated to 126 East Hargett St where it still stands today.

Johnson managed the pharmacy for almost 60 years before closing it in 2017.

KWANZAA DAY 1 – UNITY
Habari gani? Umoja!

If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

-African Proverb

Today marks the first day of Kwanzaa. Today’s principle is Umoja.

“The principle of Umoja (unity) speaks to our need to develop and sustain a sense of oneness, righteous and rightful togetherness in the small and large circles and significant relations of our lives, from family and friendship to community and the cosmos. It urges us to practice a principled and peaceful togetherness rooted in mutual respect; justice; care and concern; security of person; and equitably shared goods. And it calls on us to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, suffering and struggling peoples of the world in the cooperative achievement of these goods.”
