History of Shoppers Drug Mart

Shoppers Drug Mart, established in 1962 by Murray Koffler in Toronto, began as a single pharmacy and has grown into one of Canada's largest retail pharmacy chains. Originally known for its focus on providing a broad range of pharmaceutical services, the company evolved to meet the changing needs of its customers, expanding its product offerings to include health and beauty items, household goods, and grocery items. Over the decades, Shoppers Drug Mart became known for its convenient locations and commitment to customer service, helping to establish it as a trusted name in Canadian retail.

In 2014, Shoppers Drug Mart was acquired by Loblaw Companies Limited, one of Canada’s largest food retailers. This acquisition allowed Shoppers Drug Mart to integrate with Loblaw’s extensive network, enhancing its operational capabilities and expanding its reach across the country. Under Loblaw's ownership, Shoppers Drug Mart has continued to build on its reputation for quality and service, while also leveraging Loblaw's resources to offer a wider range of products and services to its customers. This strategic alignment has solidified Shoppers Drug Mart's position as a leading retail pharmacy chain in Canada.
