Health Coverage Program

LIG is our partner for affordable and comprehensive health insurance and pharmacy solutions designed exclusively for individuals, families, and business owners along with their employees, family, and friends. Coverage is available across the entire country as an exclusive URA member benefit. LIG will provide you with cost-effective options at no cost.

Shipping Program

Unishippers is a partner of UPS and focuses on helping small and medium-sized customers. They save retailers 25-30% on inbound shipping costs from vendors that prepay and add the freight on the product invoice. You cannot go wrong with their apples-to-apples free comparison.
Dwane Sherrick, owner of ScrubsPlus of Suffolk, VA, reported that he is incredibly happy with the savings that he is getting on UPS shipping from the Unishipper program. "This has been the best thing for me as a small business." 

Retailer to Retailer eNews

Monthly, members receive our Retailer to Retailer e-newsletter containing practical advice on retail operations, industry news, Association news, and much more.

Annual Trade Show

Held each year in a different location, members receive discounted registration rates with the opportunity to learn from business experts, see the latest products and services, and network with fellow scrub store owners. The event provides a unique opportunity to make friends and exchange ideas with successful retailers from all over the World. 

Industry Links

We have all spent time searching for information or sourcing a certain product or size. The industry links section contains items like exclusive brick-and-mortar retailer products, How to Guide on properly sizing lab coats, uniform market data and statistics, and a Bureau of Labor statistics occupational outlook on nursing and similar occupations.
