ADI was the last structure in metropolitan France not fully integrated at the level of the capital, whereas ADI’s revenue was already fully consolidated by the Group in terms of revenue since 2000 (ADI 2020 revenue: €5.8 million).Until now, pharmacists in Ile-de-France had access to only a part of the PHARMAGEST catalogue of products and services.

This represents a logical development in the Group’s evolution in this region which accounts for 18% of French pharmacies. As a result, we now have a modern local network in Ile-de-France that we intend to optimize to accelerate our development and increase our market share. By leveraging the commitment of our teams and those of ADI as well as the Group’s operating in commercial methods underpinning its success, we will expect to see growth in revenue and earnings in this region.
