„In the first six months of 2015, Dona pharmacy network reported a turnover of RON460 million and in the last six months of 2015, its turnover reached RON414 million, nearly 10% lower than in the first half, in the context of lower medicine prices as of July 1, 2015, according to the decisions of competent authorities. In 2015, Dona pharmacy network reported a turnover of RON874 million, up 13% against 2014,“ said Eugen Banciu.
The pharmacy chain saw a „remarkable increase in the number of clients and the volumes of medicines sold.” Despite keeping the minimum medicine price, Banciu expects Dona’s retail medicine business, which currently includes 270 drugstores, to exceed in the first half of 2016 the turnover registered in the same period in 2015.
On February 1, 2016, Banciu, majority stockholder of the group of companies Dona, which also includes pharmacy chain Dona, took over the positions of Chairman of the Executive Board of Dona group of firms, and of Chief Executive Officer of Siepcofar SA and Farmacia Dona SRL.
Dona pharmacy network currently has 2,300 employees.
