Hyperlocal pharmacy delivery refers to a last-mile healthcare logistics model that enables medicines and healthcare products to be delivered from nearby pharmacies or medical stores directly to consumers within a limited geographic radius, typically within hours. This model leverages digital platforms, mobile applications, and location-based technologies to connect customers with local pharmacies in real time. Hyperlocal delivery ensures faster access to prescription and over-the-counter drugs, supports emergency and chronic care needs, reduces inventory pressure on central warehouses, and strengthens local pharmacy networks. It is widely used in urban and semi-urban areas to improve convenience, accessibility, and timely healthcare service delivery.
