Cencora's primary customers include retail pharmacy chains (e.g., CVS, Walgreens), independent pharmacies, hospitals, and physician offices. Its main geographic market is the United States, where it holds a significant market share. The company also serves customers in Canada and select international markets. Revenue is diversified across thousands of clients, with no single customer representing excessive concentration.
