Strategic Planning

We provide tools and systems to assist with delivery and management of those plans.

Importantly we ensure that when you buy a pharmacy:

• it fits you and your financial goals

• the price you pay is fair market value

• you get off to the best possible start, with a strategic plan to develop the business while meeting your tax and debt obligations

Then when it’s time to expand we will:

• advise on the best options for you to capitalise on your financial circumstances

• assist with finding you the right opportunities

Category Management - Spacelink

For many years Pitcher Pharmacy has promoted the adoption of measurement processes used by the world’s best retailers - especially when it comes to analysing the productivity of your stock and the space allocated to it.

Spacelink automates stock and space analysis by importing data over the internet, directly from the Pharmacy’s Point of Sale system.  Once this information is extracted, the pharmacy simply provides the store’s shelf linear metre measurements to gain insight into departmental productivity performance.

To ensure you are maximising profitability, reports focus on department and category performance at store level as well as providing industry averages.
