DISCOUNT Drug Stores is set to open the first drive-through pharmacy in the ACT, with the Gold Creek DDS to launch the new facility on 14 Apr.
Proprietor Nader Ibrahim said the initiative creates a "new form of accessible healthcare for the brand and the ACT community to meet consumer needs".
The drive-through pharmacy will offer a click and collect program, script pick-up and online ordering.
"I've worked in the Gold Creek area for six years now and I've learned that our customers, particularly mothers in the area, really value convenience.
"This inspired our ambition to introduce the first drive-through concept in ACT to our pharmacy," Ibrahim said.
Douglas Kuskopf-Dallas, gm of Sigma Healthcare's Discount Pharmacy Retail Group, said the ACT drive-through pharmacy is a "revolutionary step forward for our brand" and an example of how DDS is adapting to serve customers.
