Our history

Since 1959

  1. 1959

    Hunt Drug opens its doors

    Hunt Drug opened in March of 1959 by John Hunt, who was looking to fulfill his long-term dream of becoming a local pharmacist. Mr. Hunt always loved his job as a pharmacist — mostly enjoying talking with people and helping them with their problems.

  2. 1976

    Dave Kohler joins as an apprentice

    Dave Kohler arrived as an apprentice in 1976 and stayed on board ever since, learning the craft behind the same counter.

  3. 1991

    New ownership, same neighborly values

    Taking ownership in 1991, Dave prided himself in his business philosophy to serve the community as best as possible — with expansive offerings in cosmetics, sundries, gifts, snacks and the pharmacy.

  4. Today

    Growing with Rochester

    Over the years, the pharmacy at Hunt's has expanded its inventory, extended hours, continued its devotion to hiring knowledgeable staff members and added delivery services.
