Nigeria’s pharmaceutical retail sector has continued to grow at a remarkable pace, driven by rising health consciousness, expanding urban centres, and increasing demand for convenient and reliable healthcare services.
By 2025, several pharmacy chains have strengthened their positions as industry leaders, leveraging both extensive physical outlets and advanced digital platforms to serve millions of Nigerians across the country.
