As your pharmacy grows. Many people are starting to offer new services, so if you want to open a pharmacy. You need to modernize your shop and have a unique decoration to increase your chances. Before you begin, a thoughtful plan can help you create a new space that is flexible and tailored to your current needs.

There are a few things you need to consider as you plan your pharmacy remodel and design.

Layout:

Planning the layout of the pharmacy is the top priority of the entire store. Our need to make the most of the available space is a critical part of planning a pharmacy layout. Do a good job of pharmacy division, and design the products sold by pharmacies to cover a variety of types such as non-prescription drugs, prescription drugs, health product,s and traditional Chinese medicine drinks. If we want to have a reasonable layout design in the store, we must first determine the partitions of these different types of goods. And the main channel and the secondary channel are planned together so that the various areas within the pharmacy are closely connected and the coherence of sales is enhanced.

What we need to pay attention to is the width of the aisle design in order to make the shopping process smoother for customers. In the process of layout design, the setting of channel width cannot be ignored. Generally speaking, the main channel of small and medium-sized pharmacies is preferably about 1.5 meters and the auxiliary channel is about 1 meter; the main channel of medium and large pharmacies is about 2 meters and the auxiliary channel is about 1.5 meters. It can neither affect customers' browsing and shopping, nor waste pharmacy space.

Design

Design is different form layout. It takes into account aesthetics such as color, lighting, and visual effects. Design elements can accentuate your store more than the layout. You can intuitively see the advantages of the product. We can use it as a way to visually impact your space while utilizing the layout to maximize the space. The walls and floors in non-sales areas are in neutral colors. Counters, vertical panels, or signboards come in a darker color. Light colors will make your space appear larger. When designing, avoid obvious patterns or some checkerboard patterns on the floor, as these will make the space appear smaller. Neutral and light colors draw more attention to the shelves, and these kinds of shelves can better display products.

It is a natural style, and you can take it as a reference.

Lighting

Lighting is an important part of the overall design. Many modern pharmacies use LED lighting on the shelves to highlight items and attract customers. The prescription area needs brighter lighting than the sales area to allow employees to clearly see what they are doing. We need to enhance the personality of the store and clearly differentiate the two areas.

Display Fixtures

Use modular display fixtures throughout the pharmacy, allowing flexibility and versatility. In order to minimize distractions. Easily make future changes and reduce costs. Choose metal shelving over wood or glass shelves in most sales areas. Metal shelves are adjustable, easier to maintain, cost less, and keep looking better for longer. In the prescription area, we aim to maximize space. And the shelves in our sales area are lowered so that customers can see from different areas of the store. Helps prevent theft, but the pharmacy area has taller shelves for better use of vertical space.

Next, I will introduce some Display Fixtures to you as a reference.

Display Shelving

You can see that the display shelving has many layers which can display the medicine better. On the back of the display shelving, we install some AA columns. You can adjust the distance of the layers, which you can display the stand. The bottom of the display shelving has a drawer that can store the goods better. You can see the top of the display stand, it has a spotlight that can make the display stand more bright. For the display shelving size, it is 1500x450x2230mm. If you want to customize the color and size, it is okay, we can help you do it.

Pharmacy Cabinet

The pharmacy cabinets, it has the display shelves and the cabinets. You can display your products according to the product orders. And there are some lines on the cabinet, and you can display your products here.

The bottom of the display stand has drawers and cabinets where you can put some valuable medicine here. You can see that it is an L shape that is suitable for the pharmacy, and the style can store and display more goods.

For the material, we usually use plywood as the main material. And we use the laminate as a surface treatment.

Pharmacy Cashier Counter

The cashier counter is necessary for the whole pharmacy store. The cashier desk has two colors which can make the cashier desk more high-end. And the left of the cashier desk has a shape which is “+”, it represents the pharmacy or hospital. And the two ends of the cashier desk have a board which can let people know it. The middle of the cashier counter has shelves, you can out some small things like lip balm, hand cream... And Customers will buy it if they notice the product and need it.

Prescription preparation and dispensing field

The field of prescription preparation and dispensing is at the heart of pharmacy. These areas must have an adequate workspace. Such as counters and shelves, which allow employees to move easily without being crowded.

Workflow is the primary consideration in the prescription area, and patient privacy considerations play a major role in the planning of the dispensing area.

So we generally have an information room.

There is a consultation room

In many cases, customers are willing to consult a pharmacist before purchasing a drug. It would be helpful to have a separate consultation room, as customers would not be disturbed. They'll easily consult a specialist about their concerns so they can take the medication they think is best for their situation. This will help you gain the trust of customers who will come to your store repeatedly.
