Two more cities are on the expansion map, but market demand will count, entrepreneur Anca Vlad told ZF.
“The Spring Farma pharmacy is expanding in certain areas because there was a demand for discounters that started online. Spring Farma is primarily an online pharmacy. We don’t want to mix the brands because the great services that Catena provides, especially professional advice, cannot be replicated in a discounter. We see what the market says. Right now, we have requests in two cities,” said Anca Vlad.
Discounter Spring started as a website in 2016 and then a year later, in 2017, it opened its first physical pharmacy. In 2018, Ziarul Financiar wrote that there were six pharmacies under the brand in total. Currently, Spring’s website lists 15 pharmacies, one of which is in Craiova and the rest in Bucharest.
