Express Scripts Holding Company, the nation’s leading pharmacy benefit manager, is expected to build a 220,000-square-foot building on its existing campus in St. Louis County and add up to 1,500 jobs between now and 2018, the company announced last week.
The expansion project is speculative at this time and contingent upon approvals and economic incentives from the State of Missouri and St. Louis County. The total cost of constructing and equipping the office is estimated at $56 million.
Express Scripts is responsible for the pharmacy benefit for more than 100 million Americans and managed 1.4 billion prescriptions last year.Â
