Hygie31, a benchmark player in the healthcare sector, is pursuing its expansion through a strategic alliance with (Réseau Pharma Méditerranée), a consortium of pharmacies. RPM, founded by two Doctors of Pharmacy (Eric Mollard and Bruno Calissi) and their associates (Christophe Di Nola and Thibault Bailles) in December 2021, now brings together some 85 pharmacies mainly located in the Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur region of France and Corsica,and generates cumulated turnover of 110 million euro.
Thanks to this 5th partnership with a consortium of local pharmacies, Hygie31 boosts access to healthcare in the regions and its goal to expand its nationwide network of pharmacies. Thanks to this new regional foothold, which complements the other consortia already present in its "ecosystem", the Group now boasts 1,361 member pharmacies in France, enabling it to exert significant influence on the markets and laboratories.
By joining Hygie31, RPM pharmacists can take advantage of a host of the Group's services and tools to help them in their day-to-day work as healthcare professionals and to make running their pharmacy easier.
- A stronger service-focused approach and easier management thanks to the group's investment in AI (innovative services making administrative management easier, new management tools, etc.).
- Support for implementing the clinical and service-focused approach of RPM pharmacies through access to Hygie Academy, the group's in-house training school, and its extensive training programme for the group's pharmacies. The training courses offered in particular provide support to pharmacy teams for carrying out and developing new healthcare tasks for pharmacists.
- A wide array of exclusive brands (over 100 references in 6 categories), comprising innovative, premium-quality products at really competitive prices.
- Access to HygieStore, the Group's own procurement platform, which totals some 25,000 references.
We're delighted to welcome the Réseau Pharma Méditerranée consortium, which has an extensive local foothold in the South-East region of France, into our "ecosystem". This new partnership further illustrates our strategy launched in 2021 to consolidate our nationwide network of pharmacies through complementary regional partnerships, to make Healthcare accessible to everyone, everywhere.
