NEW Zealand pharmacy software developer Toniq has been acquired by Dublin-based Clanwilliam Group, joining the company's portfolio of "best-of-breed" solutions in the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
Toniq software is used by more than 850 pharmacies across New Zealand, with functionality including dispensary workflow, point of sale, stock ordering and medication management for aged care facilities.
The Clanwilliam Group's existing pharmacy portfolio includes brands such as RxWeb, PharmaSys, Safescript and CliniScript, with Toniq founder Clive Davidson saying "after 20 years of growing organically to become the leading pharmacy software in New Zealand, I am very pleased that Toniq can retain its identity and location and commitment to all New Zealand pharmacies".
He said Clanwilliam's resources would enable the company to grow its product offering and services.
"We are expecting a business-as-usual approach for all of our customers...however the company will now benefit from the innovations that a larger group can offer through better information tools and integration with new healthcare technologies," he added.
Clanwilliam's customer base in Ireland and the UK includes both hospital and community pharmacies, with major chains and independents using the software along with national and private hospitals.
