Th\u1ebf Gi\u1edbi Di \u0110\u1ed9ng, the market's largest phone and electronics retail chain, officially entered pharmaceutical retail by opening a series of An Khang pharmacies in Ho Chi Minh City on 06.01.2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

Earlier, on 28.12.2017, Th\u1ebf Gi\u1edbi Di \u0110\u1ed9ng's board approved purchasing shares in An Khang Retail Joint Stock Company, owner of An Khang Pharmacy.<\/span><\/p>\n

All seven existing An Khang pharmacies occupy former Ph\u00fac An Khang pharmacy premises. Since late 2017, the Ph\u00fac An Khang pharmacy network had temporarily closed for renovation to become a new pharmacy chain called An Khang.<\/span><\/p>\n

An Khang pharmacies have green signs with the distinctive human figure used by members of the Th\u1ebf Gi\u1edbi Di \u0110\u1ed9ng group, including the Th\u1ebf Gi\u1edbi Di \u0110\u1ed9ng, \u0110i\u1ec7n M\u00e1y Xanh, and B\u00e1ch H\u00f3a Xanh chains. Unlike the other members, An Khang also has a flashing cross sign in front of its entrance to catch passersby's attention.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inside the pharmacy, medicines occupy half the display area; the other half holds healthcare products, cosmetics, dietary supplements, medical equipment\u2026 An Khang pharmacy staff handle payments and product management through mobile phones, as in Th\u1ebf Gi\u1edbi Di \u0110\u1ed9ng's retail stores. This differs from the Ph\u00fac An Khang system, which previously used computers for management.<\/span><\/p>\n

An Khang pharmacy\u2019s mobile app has appeared on Android. However, pharmacy employees say product ordering through it has not yet launched. The An Khang website is still being completed, but users can look up information about medicines, hospitals, doctors and diseases\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Demand for medicines in Vietnam is forecast to keep rising because the country has ended its demographic golden period and has been entering population aging since 2017. According to FPT Securities, this is the main driver bringing pharmaceuticals into the initial stage of a development process after a long period of spontaneous growth without systematic planning and oversight.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to IMS Health estimates, per capita medicine consumption in Vietnam was only about USD 33 in 2015 and was projected to reach nearly USD 50 in 2020. Even so, this remains significantly below the global average of USD 180.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pharmaceutical retail, worth about USD 5 billion in 2016 but with no dominant business, is the next target for retail giants.<\/span><\/p>\n

To enter the market quickly, Th\u1ebf gi\u1edbi di \u0111\u1ed9ng planned mergers and acquisitions (M&A) of pharmaceutical retailers. Nguy\u1ec5n \u0110\u1ee9c T\u00e0i, Chairman of Th\u1ebf gi\u1edbi di \u0111\u1ed9ng, shared this ambition at the General Meeting of Shareholders in late 03.2017. Th\u1ebf gi\u1edbi di \u0111\u1ed9ng decided to allocate VND 2,500 billion to M&A.<\/span><\/p>\n

FPT Retail General Director Nguy\u1ec5n B\u1ea1ch \u0110i\u1ec7p recently confirmed an investment in the Long Ch\u00e2u pharmacy chain in Ho Chi Minh City. Digiworld, a technology-product distributor, is also beginning to distribute dietary supplements.<\/span><\/p>\n
