&lt;strong&gt;Activity Description: &lt;/strong&gt;
Mi Farmacita Nacional is a nationwide pharmacy chain that provides low-cost generics, purified water and powdered milk, consultations, and pre-op services to underprivileged individuals. To supplement their income, the independent franchises also provide additional services such as telephone and Internet. Each pharmacy serves an average of 2,500 households.
&lt;br/ &gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The government of Mexico supports the venture by providing generous tax exemptions to franchised networks.&lt;br class=&quot;clear&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
