Summary and extracts

1 Market overview

1.1 Definition and presentation

Pharmacies are physical outlets that sell medicines, but also hygiene and care products. Pharmacies are often sales intermediaries, but they can also play an important role in providing advice, and even in preparing products.

Worldwide, the pharmacy market is largely dominated by North America, which accounts for almost half of global sales. Europe ranks second with around a quarter of the total, ahead of the Asia-Pacific region. In Europe, Spain has the largest number of pharmacies (over 22,000), ahead of France (21,200), Germany (19,400) and Italy (18,900).

In Spain, pharmacy sales remain relatively small due to the relatively high fragmentation of the market, with an average of just over 900,000 euros per establishment. By 2022, more than two-thirds of sales will come from the sale of medicines, with the remainder generated by the consumer health segment. Eight autonomous communities account for 80% of national sales. Andalusia remains the leading national market, ahead of Catalonia and Madrid. Among the most dynamic products, anti-diabetic products and antithrombotic agents have seen their volumes rise sharply. [IQVIA]
