Chemist Warehouse is part of Sigma Healthcare. We opened our first store in Melbourne back in 2000. Over the next few years, several more stores opened in Victoria. Our success pushed us to explore other states, in 2004, our first interstate store opened in Cairns, Queensland.
Today, Chemist Warehouse has over 570 stores across Australia, employing more than 20,000 team members! We are proud to say, we are Australia’s leading retail pharmacy group and still growing, both domestically and internationally! As our international presence continues to expand, we’re committed to delivering excellence for our customers, suppliers, and communities across the world.
Back in 1997, husband and wife team Hartley and Marree Atkinson hit the road selling products direct to pharmacies. AFT Pharmaceuticals was formed with a big dream in mind.
In Australasia, our product line now extends to over 130 prescription and non-prescription products. We have offices in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Sydney and Auckland (our HQ). We export or license our products to over 109 countries. Plus our Orphan Drugs Foundation provides access to lower cost pharmaceuticals for people with rare diseases within South East Asia and the Pacific.
This success has been built on research and development. R&D is more than corporate speak for us. It’s at the heart of what we do, whether it’s developing new products, or improving existing existing ones. It’s also due to the fact that we are close to the market. Because we sell our own products we are constantly looking for changes in health needs and how we can fill gaps that emerge.
Our ideas, our researchers, our specialist drug development programmes, and the international experts we partner with have allowed us to grow year on year. It’s how we’ve managed to forge a place on the world stage in the extremely competitive pharmaceutical industry.
We're proud of our past achievements. We’re ambitious for the future.
Delivering wellness since 1988.
HealthPost is an online store with a healthy difference. We’re here to support you, and nature too. Ever since 1988, when our founder, Linley Butler, began posting natural health and wellness products to family and friends from beautiful Mohua Golden Bay, we’ve been a socially responsible business that puts people first.
Today, we’re a little bigger, delivering natural health, clean beauty, healthy food & drink, and eco living products to doorsteps everywhere, what remains stronger than ever is the ethical values at the heart of our business.
Now, like then, we’re here to help people live naturally healthy lives – and to have a lasting, positive impact on the wellbeing of people and planet. And we aim to deliver on that, every day.
