Supply Chain & Retail

SC&R is Uniphar’s largest division and a leader in the Irish pharmaceutical wholesale, pre-wholesale and retail pharmacy markets. The division runs, owns or supports through symbol groups more than 400 of Ireland’s 1850+ community pharmacies and is primary supplier to another 500. Acquisitions in this division have been primarily of retail pharmacy chains, some of which have been rebranded to the Uniphar symbol groups of Allcare Pharmacy and Life Pharmacy, others which have retained their original branding, eg Hickey’s Pharmacies. Our Irish business continues to grow steadily and we are looking at opportunities to extend our successful Irish model to other markets.
