Smaller hospitals are establishing their own public pharmacies. Until now the public pharmacies in most hospitals were run by private operators. Hospitals want to use the profits from pharmacies to repay debts or purchase new equipment. Hospital is an ideal place for public pharmacy, as there is a large concentration of clients – patients, as well as their relatives. 

Investment group Penta will probably expand its business in pharmacy. Currently it owns 136 pharmacies under the brand Dr. Max. Now it should get about 40 pharmacies from the network Domov Zdravia. Penta is waiting for the approval of Antimonopoly Office. Contract of sale was allegedly signed in October 2011. Transaction is still not completed. In the case of approval of Antimonopoly Office it will come to the settlement of the transaction.
