Introduction

Highlights

Worth £12.8bn in 2006, this is a substantial retail market. It has outperformed total retail in nine of the past 10 years and with an ageing population profile and both consumer trends and government policy favouring future growth, is an attractive market for retailers, but there are challenges that retailers must overcome to maximise potential.

Since 2000, NHS pharmacy spend is up 40.4% to £160.50 per capita. The contribution from OTC & Other products has also risen, but by just 6.6%.

Average pharmacy income exceeded £1m for the first time in 2005 and space has become much more productive. Market growth is almost guaranteed over the next two decades, driven by an ageing population profile, government policies, and consumer trends such as demand for convenience.

  • The retail pharmacy market differs from traditional retail sectors. This unique report identifies the key issues, dynamics and growth opportunities.
  • It quantifies the financial opportunities available to participants from data such as market value, average pharmacy revenues and sales densities.
