Global Pharma E-Commerce Market Dynamics

Drivers

  • Increase in Elderly Population and Chronic Diseases

An increase in the elderly population and chronic diseases is a major trend in the market. The life expectancy of people in Europe is more than in other developed countries. The increased prevalence of chronic illnesses such as arthritis, cancer, diabetes, obesity, asthma, heart disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among the elderly leads to their higher dependency on families and caregivers. This e-commerce platform helped the elderly greatly as it is difficult for them to step out and buy medicines. Thus, this factor boosts market growth.

Opportunities

  • Increasing Demand for Omnichannel Retailing Technique

The omnichannel retailing technique by pharmacy chains is boosting market growth. With consumers' increasing adoption of online pharmacies, retail pharmacy chains globally have incorporated online services and mobile applications with their conventional platforms to provide rapid and real-time access to the retail brand. It combines physical and digital experiences with pharmacy as its touchpoint. This involves being backed by real-time inventory data and effective logistics and stock availability advice and display. Thus, this factor boosts market growth.  

  • Increasing Demand for E-prescriptions

Numerous healthcare professionals are now drifting towards e-prescriptions to let patients rapidly avail medicine with the help of e-prescriptions. Countries such as the U.K. are indulging in more effort into applying e-prescriptions. For instance, Co-op Health, a digital prescription service that allows individuals to obtain medication through an app for convenient pickup at a nearby pharmacy or home delivery, was acquired by Phoenix U.K. in 2021. The app has shown major development within a short period, and PHOENIX UK will use its network of Numark and Rowlands to meet that need. Thus, this factor enhances the market growth.

Restraints/Challenges

  • High Prevalence of Counterfeit Medicines

Illegal online pharmacies have become a life-threatening issue worldwide. Online pharmacies in almost all countries are operating in an unregulated manner.
