From modest beginnings in Melbourne in 1912, Sigma Healthcare has grown into a vibrant, nationwide network servicing community and hospital pharmacies.
Sigma Healthcare offers several well-established and trusted community pharmacy brands such as Amcal and Guardian, low-cost solutions PharmaSave and Discount Drug Store, and WholeLife Pharmacy & Healthfoods – a newer entry to the pharmacy market that caters to the changing needs in some communities by offering a holistic approach to health, wellness and wellbeing.
Along with the community pharmacy brands offered by Sigma Healthcare, they also provide a range of services to pharmacies that include a nationwide supply network, business and financial services, marketing support, training, and more.
To demonstrate the value and support that Sigma Healthcare brings to their pharmacists every day, they have produced a video featuring their new state-of-the-art $300 million distribution centre and testimonials from pharmacy owners outlining the three key benefits they bring to pharmacy businesses.

- Leading Technology
Industry-leading infrastructure, systems and people to ensure the efficiency and accurate supply of products and solutions.
- Trusted People
Access to a team of trusted industry experts and pharmacy advisors that pharmacists can rely on for ongoing support and advice.
This is what pharmacy owners featured in the video had to say about being a part of the Sigma Healthcare family:
