Connecting with Suppliers

New Skin Advice Service
For the first time in any high street pharmacy store, Superdrug has launched a new skincare and treatment service in all its stores with a pharmacy. Over 160 pharmacists in Superdrug have been trained to provide support for a range of skin conditions such as acne and eczema, so that customers can easily obtain advice about their skin health. The service aims to make expert skin condition advice more accessible to everyone so the consultations will be on a walk-in basis and free of charge.
World Alzheimer's Month
September was World Alzheimer's Month, and The Perfume Shop took this opportunity to rally behind its charity partner Alzheimer's Research UK. It raised awareness on social media and raised funds for this worthy cause. The Perfume Shop donated 50 pence for every personalised ribbon sold and a total of £84,039.02 was raised!
New Sustainable Store
Superdrug opened a new sustainable store in Peterborough Serpentine Green Shopping Center! The store features fully recyclable signage including graphics produced from recycled yarn and plastic bottles. Its ceiling tiles are made from bio-soluble mineral wool, clay and starch and are 100% recyclable. In addition, the number of LED Mod lights in the ceiling is reduced by 20% and the store has a waste management target of 5% to landfill.
