Pharmacy Market Size & Trends

The global pharmacy market size was estimated at USD 1.26 trillion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.28% from 2024 to 2030. The growing demand for specialty drugs globally and increasing prescription drug expenditure in developed countries are expected to drive the growth of the market over the forecast period. In addition, the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, majorly due to changes in lifestyle and a rapidly aging population, are supplementing the market growth.

Global Pharmacy Market size and growth rate, 2024 - 2030

The growing demand for prescription medications is contributing to the industry's growth. As the demand for prescription drugs increases, pharmacies experience a surge in business due to the need for dispensing these medications. According to the National Health Service the current cost of an NHS prescription in England for 2024-2025 is USD 12.65 per item, an increase of USD 0.51 from the previous year. Prescription charges are usually reviewed annually. The cost has increased steadily in recent years, from USD 8.80 in 2015 - 2016 to USD 10.47 in 2024 - 2025.

Moreover, pharmacies are adopting digitalization programs to cater to the growing demand from consumers and provide improved accessibility to patients. For instance, CVS Health introduced a Digital Transformation program to personalize the healthcare experience using artificial intelligence, machine learning, data, and analytics. Moreover, in December 2021, the company entered into a partnership with Microsoft to scale up retail personalization and loyalty programs using advanced machine learning, powered by Azure. Such digitalization and automation strategies are anticipated to drive the growth in the industry during the forecast period.

Market Concentration & Characteristics 

The industry is highly fragmented with the presence of many local and regional pharmacies. Furthermore, the degree of innovation is medium, and the level of M&A activities is high. The impact of regulations on the industry is high, while regional expansion is low. However, service expansion is low.

Pharmacy Market Concentration & Characteristics

The degree of innovations in the industry is significant, driven by the integration of cutting-edge technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI). Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated this shift towards digital healthcare solutions, with consumer trust in online medication purchases increasing significantly. The adoption of telehealth services, including telepharmacy, has surged, with patient adoption in the U.S. increasing from 11% in 2019 to 46% in 2024.

The industry's merger and acquisition activity has significantly increased in recent years. Key stakeholders are implementing strategies, such as mergers and acquisitions, to enhance their distribution channels and industry share. For instance, in June 2021, Medly Pharmacy acquired Pharmaca, a pharmacy chain, to expand its presence across thirty different markets.

The impact of regulations on the industry is significant. The FDA administers drug distribution and regulation, while state & local governments have some authority. Congress has a legislative mandate, while the FDA also creates and modifies regulations related to pharmacy practices. This activity aims to provide a concise overview of significant legislation and regulations in the field. Furthermore, the Prescription Drug Marketing Act ensures the quality of medications for American consumers by preventing adulteration, counterfeiting, misbranding, sub-potency, and expired drugs. It also regulates the reimportation of drugs and enhances the rigor in sales and distribution of pharmaceuticals.

Pharmacies are expanding their services to improve patient outcomes and increase profit and contribute to demand for the industry. For instance, in March 2022,Albertsons Companies introduced a new program that allows customers to buy over-the-counter medications using supplemental benefits in their stores. The program enabled customers to use prepaid cards that Medicare Advantage funds plans, healthcare providers, employer incentives, or local governments.

The industry is experiencing significant growth globally, with key regions showing promising expansion opportunities. Several companies are expanding their presence in different regions. For instance, CVS Health, a leading U.S. pharmacy retailer, has been growing its footprint across the country. In 2021, CVS operated over 9,900 retail locations and 1,100 walk-in medical clinics.

Product Insights

Based on product type, the prescription segment dominated the pharmacy market with the largest revenue share of 81.5% in 2023. The increasing demand for prescription drugs for therapies, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, respiratory diseases, antibiotics, blood disorders, and oncology, is driving the growth of the prescription segment. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of long-term health conditions and the expanding elderly demographic are fueling the need for prescription drugs.

According to the IDF Diabetes Atlas, 537 million adults were suffering from diabetes in 2021 globally. The number of adults suffering from diabetes is estimated to increase to 783 million by 2045. Almost 90% of older adults regularly take at least one prescription drug, with many taking multiple medications to manage chronic conditions. This growing need for prescription drugs, especially among the aging population, is expected to significantly drive the growth of the industry in the coming years.

However, the OTC segment is estimated to witness the fastest growth rate during the forecast period. The high growth is due to better cost savings compared to prescription drugs, consumer empowerment in managing minor ailments, a shift toward preventive healthcare, an expanding product range, consumer awareness & education, and the influence of online sales and e-commerce platforms. In addition, the increasing trend of self-medication and conversion of prescription medicines to OTC medications is expected to contribute to the growth of the segment over the forecast period. For instance, in March 2023, the U.S. FDA approved Narcan (4 mg), a naloxone hydrochloride nasal spray, for OTC use. It is the first-ever naloxone product approved to be used OTC.

Type Insights

The retail pharmacy segment held the highest revenue share of 55.3% in 2023. The increasing presence of chain pharmacies & independent pharmacies and the availability of medications in supermarkets & mass retailers in countries such as the UK & the U.S., is driving the growth of the segment. Large chains such as Boots, Walgreens, CVS Health, Lloyd, Shoppers Drug Mart, and Well Pharmacy have a significant presence in countries such as Canada, the U.S., Australia, the U.K., and Russia. This concentration of major retailers is promoting the growth of the segment.

Global Pharmacy Market share and size, 2023

ePharmacy is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. In 2020, numerous Innovations such as telepharmacy, mobile apps for prescription ordering, medication reminders, and online consultations have improved efficiency and accessibility, enhanced the customer experience, and expected to drive the growth of the segment. ePharmacies experienced a rise in revenue growth due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, during pandemic CVS Health has seen a significant increase in digital refills for specialty medications through its mobile apps. Online sales of Walgreen Boots Alliance U.K. increased by 15.2% in 2022. Moreover, increasing penetration of smartphones, the high adoption of digital technologies by the healthcare industry, and growing number of retailers introducing online channels are projected to contribute to the growth of the industry.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the market with a share of 53.3% in 2023. Growth can be attributed to the presence of large-scale multinational chains, such as Boots Walgreens, CVS Health, UnitedHealth Group, Cigna, Kroger, Walmart, and Rite Aid Corp.

Research Methodology

A three-pronged approach was followed for deducing the pharmacy market estimates and forecasts. The process has three steps: information procurement, analysis, and validation. The whole process is cyclical, and steps repeat until the estimates are validated. The three steps are explained in detail below:

Information procurement: Information procurement is one of the most extensive and important stages in our research process, and quality data is critical for accurate analysis. We followed a multi-channel data collection process for pharmacy market to gather the most reliable and current information possible.

  • We buy access to paid databases such as Hoover’s and Factiva for company financials, industry information, white papers, industry journals, SME journals, and more.

  • We tap into Grand View’s proprietary database of data points and insights from active and archived monitoring and reporting.

  • We conduct primary research with industry experts through questionnaires and one-on-one phone interviews.

  • We pull from reliable secondary sources such as white papers and government statistics, published by organizations like WHO, NGOs, World Bank, etc., Key Opinion Leaders (KoL) publications, company filings, investor documents, and more.

  • We purchase and review investor analyst reports, broker reports, academic commentary, government quotes, and wealth management publications for insightful third-party perspectives.

Analysis: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilized different methods of pharmacy market data depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Research Efforts: Bottom-up Approach for estimating and forecasting demand size and opportunity, top-down Approach for new product forecasting and penetration, and combined approach of both Bottom-up and Top-down for full coverage analysis.

  • Value-Chain-Based Sizing & Forecasting: Supply-side estimates for understanding potential revenue through competitive benchmarking, forecasting, and penetration modeling.

  • Demand-side estimates for identifying parent and ancillary markets, segment modeling, and heuristic forecasting.

  • Qualitative Functional Deployment (QFD) Modelling for market share assessment.

Market formulation and validation: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilize different methods of data analysis depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Formulation: This step involves the finalization of market numbers. This step on an internal level is designed to manage outputs from the Data Analysis step.

  • Data Normalization: The final market estimates and forecasts are then aligned and sent to industry experts, in-panel quality control managers for validation.

  • This step also entails the finalization of the report scope and data representation pattern.

  • Validation: The process entails multiple levels of validation. All these steps run in parallel, and the study is forwarded for publishing only if all three levels render validated results.

Pharmacy Market Categorization:

The pharmacy market was categorized into three segments, namely product type (Prescription, OTC), pharmacy type (Hospital, Retail, ePharmacy), and regions (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and Africa)

Segment Market Methodology:

The pharmacy market was segmented into product type, pharmacy type, and regions. The demand at a segment level was deduced using a funnel method. Concepts like the TAM, SAM, SOM, etc., were put into practice to understand the demand. We at GVR deploy three methods to deduce market estimates and determine forecasts. These methods are explained below:

Market research approaches: Bottom-up

  • Demand estimation of each product across countries/regions summed up to from the total market.

  • Variable analysis for demand forecast.

  • Demand estimation via analyzing paid database, and company financials either via annual reports or paid database.

  • Primary interviews for data revalidation and insight collection.

Market research approaches: Top-down

  • Used extensively for new product forecasting or analyzing penetration levels.

  • Tool used invoice product flow and penetration models Use of regression multi-variant analysis for forecasting Involves extensive use of paid and public databases.

  • Primary interviews and vendor-based primary research for variable impact analysis.

Market research approaches: Combined

  • This is the most common method. We apply concepts from both the top-down and bottom-up approaches to arrive at a viable conclusion.

Regional Market Methodology:

The pharmacy market was analyzed at a regional level. The globe was divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa, keeping in focus variables like consumption patterns, export-import regulations, consumer expectations, etc. These regions were further divided into eighteen countries, namely, the U.S.; Canada; the UK; Germany; France; Spain; Italy; Russia; Japan; China; Australia; India; Brazil; Mexico; Argentina; South Africa; UAE; Saudi Arabia.

All three above-mentioned market research methodologies were applied to arrive at regional-level conclusions. The regions were then summed up to form the global market.

Pharmacy market companies & financials:

The pharmacy market was analyzed via companies operating in the sector. Key market players analyzed include CVS Health; Boots Walgreens; Cigna; Walmart; Kroger; Rite Aid Corp.; Lloyd Pharmacy; Well Pharmacy; Humana Pharmacy Solutions; Matsumoto Kiyoshi

Analyzing these companies and cross-referencing them to the demand equation helped us validate our assumptions and conclusions.
