Parallel loading of Input Files in Pandas Dataframe

I have a Requirement, where I have three Input files and need to load them inside the Pandas Data Frame, before merging two of the files into one single Data Frame.

The File extension always changes, it could be .txt one time and .xlsx or .csv another time.

How Can I run this process parallel, in order to save the waiting/ loading time ?

This is my code at the moment,

from time import time # to measure the time taken to run the code
start_time = time()

Primary_File = "//ServerA/Testing Folder File Open/Report.xlsx"
Secondary_File_1 = "//ServerA/Testing Folder File Open/Report2.csv"
Secondary_File_2 = "//ServerA/Testing Folder File Open/Report2.csv"

import pandas as pd # to work with the data frames
Primary_df = pd.read_excel (Primary_File)
Secondary_1_df = pd.read_csv (Secondary_File_1)
Secondary_2_df = pd.read_csv (Secondary_File_2)

Secondary_df = Secondary_1_df.merge(Secondary_2_df, how='inner', on=['ID'])
end_time = time()

print(end_time - start_time)

It takes around 20 minutes for me to load my primary_df and secondary_df. So, I am looking for an efficient solution possibly using parallel processing to save time. I timed by Reading operation and it takes most of the time approximately 18 minutes 45 seconds.

Question Made Eligible for bounty :- As I am looking for a working code with detailed steps - using a package with in anaconda environment that supports loading my input files Parallel and storing them in a pandas data frame separately. This should eventually save time.
