Leaders of pharmacy chains. MarketMedia studied which Russian pharmacy chains were among the top ten largest by number of outlets

The analytical company RNC Pharma ® presents a rating of Russian pharmacy chains based on the results of 1-3 quarters. 2017

The third quarter in relation to Russian pharmaceutical retail was replete with a wide variety of events. We had to witness both all kinds of transactions, often quite large, and the renewal of rhetoric on certain regulatory issues, in particular the possibility of selling drugs in supermarkets.

The issue of expanding drug sales points, which has been going on intermittently since 2014, has become quite boring. Neither representatives of the professional pharmaceutical community, nor, we dare say, representatives of “big retail”, who are slowly but surely developing their own projects in pharmaceutical retail, can find any obvious expediency in this innovation. Nevertheless, this issue arises from the depths of the Government with enviable consistency.

Transactions, the number of which seems to be growing every day, have also become almost commonplace. The change of owners of “Classics” and “Pharmakor”, even adjusted for the decent size of the companies, is also difficult to suspect of originality, if only due to the striking similarity of the fate of these companies before the sale and the organizational format in which the transactions were carried out.

So, upon closer examination, the apparent diversity of the information flow leaves a feeling of some déjà vu, which, against the backdrop of quite obvious signs of stagnation in the Russian pharmaceutical market, looks very symptomatic.

Top 50 pharmacy chains with the highest average bill

Comparing the TOP 200 pharmacy chains for the first half of 2015 and 2016, we can state: 10% of companies from the pharmaceutical industry left the ranking for various reasons. Among them were the Sochi pharmacy chain Farmada, the first pharmacy kiosk of the Gran chain, the Healthy People pharmacy chain, the Yekaterinburg company Stolet and others.

During the preparation of each project, new companies are regularly opened. Of the 20 companies that have just appeared in the current rating, only half were previously visible. Another 10 networks were included in the database for the first time, two of them were Crimean: “AViK” by Alexander Lishchenko and “Med-Service”, which was previously part of Oleg Tokarev’s Ukrainian business group.

Among those who were previously on the radar and received admission to the TOP, it is worth mentioning the Mosapteka chain, launched by co-owner of the development Sezar Group Ruslan Semenov. “We decided to diversify the business, and the pharmacy segment seemed very attractive,” explains his junior partner Lev Nasimov. Businessmen have ambitious plans - by the end of the year to increase the number of Mosaptek to 70-75, and by the end of 2017 - to 170 points.

You can learn about the development of the pharmaceutical market in 2016, financial innovations, problems and prospects for the development of new medicines, and much more at the fifth forum of financial directors of the pharmaceutical business.

At the beginning of this year, the issue of allowing the sale of drugs in non-pharmaceutical retail once again arose as one of the central topics for Russian pharmaceutical retail. It would seem that the professional community gave the initiative a very unambiguous assessment even earlier, so we can call it a day. However, regulators decided otherwise. In December 2017, a draft of the corresponding federal law was presented for public discussion.

Probably, no one needs to explain that the Federal Law is a “serious thing”, and since the draft document has appeared, the likelihood of its adoption should be considered as very high. So the statement of several major representatives of the Russian pharmaceutical retail about the risk of closing a significant share of their pharmacies seriously agitated both the professional community and the general public. If this is the case for the leaders, then what will happen to the second and third tier companies?

However, passions are also running high in “big” retail; echoes of these events were expressed in the sale of a blocking stake in the Magnit chain by the company’s founder, Sergei Galitsky, to VTB Bank.

We will not quote “conspiracy theories” about the ongoing process of nationalization of the global retail market; these versions hardly have any right to exist, but still the growing role of the banking sector in retail management, incl. pharmaceutical, difficult to ignore. In particular, this year, noticeable changes have occurred in the management structure of Pharmacy Chain 36.6, some of them, obviously, were initiated by the structures of ICD.

This rating shows the market share occupied by a combination of pharmacy chains and individual pharmacies

The list of 100 largest enterprises in Russia includes several pharmacy chains. The largest companies in terms of profit, included in the Top 7, are the companies ASNA, Rigla, Pharmacy Chain 36.6, Implozia, Planet Zdorovya, Erkofarm Group of Companies, Neo-Pharm.

The last few years, amid the crisis, have shown the dynamics of falling demand for medicines. A study of the pharmaceutical retail market conducted by the analytical company KMPG in 2016 marked the beginning of a turning point - for the first time in several years, there was a positive increase in the revenue of pharmacy chains.

Analysis of the table shows that Russian pharmacy chains in the TOP 10 have strengthened their positions in the market. Their total share increased to 45%. The revenue ratio of 2016 to 2015 increased by 26.6%. These figures indicate ongoing market consolidation.

RNC Pharma, a well-known analytical observer, presented a rating of Russian pharmacy chains based on the results of the 1st quarter of 2017.

Table 2. Top 7 pharmacy chains by share in the retail market

	Pharmacy chain	Central office location	Number of points as of 01.04. 2017	Market share based on the results of the 1st quarter of 2017
						The market as a whole, without LLO
	Pharmacy chain 36.6
	Implosion
	Planet Health
	Erkafarm Group of Companies

If we compare the results of 2016 and the 1st quarter of 2017, we can note some serious changes in the TOP-7. Rigla was ahead of Pharmacy Chain 36.6, Raduga flew out of the coveted seven - its place was taken by Neo-Pharm.

According to the researchers, pharmacy market close to saturation - today it is increasingly difficult to find suitable space in places with sufficient traffic. Global investment programs promise certain opportunities, such as the renovation project in Moscow. However, it is local in nature. Increased interest in the pharmaceutical market from non-pharmaceutical retail promises a serious increase in competition in the foreseeable future.

Table 3. Main sources of increased competition in the market during 2016

	Aggressive pricing policy of players
	The existing high concentration of pharmacy chains in the regions where the company operates
	Future strengthening of the geographical presence of local players
	Development of new formats by other players (pharmacy-supermarkets, discounters)
	The emergence of new players, mainly regional ones, in the areas where the company operates
	The emergence of new players, mainly federal ones, in the places of presence of the company
	Business diversification by other players (for example, launching your own production or distribution)

That is why leading players are rushing to capture the remaining space in the market - in 2017, according to a KMPG survey, 90% of large retail chains plan to expand their presence by opening new sales points. The geographical placement of pharmacy points is carried out on the basis of preliminary marketing research.

Some players speak out about the need to limit the market. More than 58% of pharmacy chain managers are in favor of legislatively limiting the number of pharmacies in the country, following the example of Western European countries: France, Spain and Germany.

There cannot be an oversupply of pharmacies in Russia - Nadezhda Sharavskaya, deputy head of the department for control of the social sphere and trade of the Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS), expresses her disagreement with the heads of pharmacy chains. This is a commercial market, pharmacies are opening, which means they are profitable and they have demand, she argues. Many pharmacies operate in the capitals of the constituent entities; the restriction will lead to higher prices and interfere with competition, from her point of view.

Let's look at large Russian pharmacy chains that are considered leaders in the pharmaceutical market.

ASNA is present in more than 100 cities and more than 60 constituent entities of the Federation. Regional representative offices have been opened in Nizhny Novgorod, Izhevsk, and Kazan.
