Clicks’ plan for 2023 includes its first-ever 24-hour pharmacy and a bunch of new stores and pharmacies across South Africa.
Clicks Group plans to open 50 new stores and 40 pharmacies in 2023 and has acquired its first 24-hour pharmacy in the Western Cape.
More interestingly, Clicks noted that after the end of the reporting period, the Group acquired M-Kem, a long-established 24-hour pharmacy in Bellville, Cape Town. This will be Clicks’ first 24-hour pharmacy in South Africa. Group turnover increased by 6.8% to R20 billion, retail turnover increased by 11.9%, and adjusted total income grew by 8.1% to R5.8 billion.
“Growth in Clicks was driven by the sustained post-Covid recovery in the beauty and personal care categories, supported by the Clicks ClubCard loyalty programme, which passed the 10 million active member milestone. Clicks Group again proved the resilience and defensiveness of its core retail business in challenging trading conditions,” the Group said.
