Future of Pharmacy Retail Market: Ken Research

How Pharmacy Retail Market Is Positioned In Thailand?

Volatile growth was observed within Thailand pharmacy retail market as multiple pharmacy stores closed due to the non-compliance of GPP standards required by the FDA. Thailand pharmacy retail market revenue was observed increase from USD ~ million in 2014 to USD ~ million in the year 2019 therefore, growing at a CAGR of ~% during the 2014-2019 review periods. However, the closure of pharmacy outlets resulted in higher customer footfall in other pharmacies; hence a lower revenue growth rate was recorded in the year 2019. The market was observed in the growth stage owing to the growing intensity of competition among the retail pharmacies in the market in terms of wide product offering and value-added services. The franchise model has become quite popular with new chains adapting to this model for faster store expansion.

Moreover, collaboration between state hospitals and small chains has helped patients being treated under “UHC” alongside the growth of pharmacy stores. Change in population structure i.e. transition to the Thai aging society has led to a surge in drugs (including dietary supplements) demanded towards chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and others. The market is booming owing to the rising number of cases of NCDs, online pharmacy services, increasing government health expenditure.

Growth of Online Consultations, E-Prescriptions, Online Stores of Pharmacies and Consolidation of Small Independent Pharmacies or Pharmacy Chains to Larger Chains; and Growing number of Licenses issued to Pharmacists to import, store or deal by Wholesale & Retail are some of the other growth drivers.

By Product Categories (Prescribed, OTC, and Non-Pharmaceutical Products and Medical Equipment): Prescribed drugs dominated the market in terms of revenue in 2019 largely due to the higher price/margins involved. Among the other product categories, OTC & Non-Pharmaceutical products were consistently growing in terms of revenue share. Medical equipment captured the least revenue share.

By Drug Type (Generic and Patented Drugs): Generics Drugs within Thailand dominated in terms of revenue as it has high consumption volume alongside rising government healthcare schemes to increase patient purchasing power in the country. Whereas, patented drugs on the other hand are ailment specific.

On the other hand, penetration of organized space is increasing over the years with top five players including Watsons Thailand, Boots Thailand, and Pure Pharmacy by Big C, Fascino Drugstores and Save Drug. The players in the industry compete on the basis of parameters such as Number of Pharmacy Stores, Geographical Presence, Brand Recognition, and Partnerships with Telemedicine & E-Prescription Providers, product portfolio, online deliveries & other value-added services.

Increasing customer footfalls along with a surge in telemedicine players for online consultations and home delivery services will drive industry growth over the long term.
