DISCOUNT pharmacy group Chemist Discount Centre (CDC) has announced 60% growth in its business along with plans for a national footprint expansion and an "aggressive three-year growth strategy" as it opens three new stores in Western Australia this month.
A further 24 locations across Western Australia, Queensland, Victoria and New South Wales are set to join the group following a successful promotional campaign at the Australian Pharmacy Professional conference (APP) on the Gold Coast in May this year.
The national brand is part of the Advantage Group which now has a network of more than 230 retail pharmacies.
Advantage CEO Steven Kastrinakis said the growth in the business was due to "the current macro-economic environment and the strength of the brand's value proposition which includes market leading proprietary technology".
CDC also provides "a completely managed business solution with a bespoke and integrated IT system, Buy-It-Right, setting it apart from competitors", Kastrinakis added.
