Shoppers Drug Mart Inc., commonly known as Shoppers (named Pharmaprix in Quebec) is a Canadian retail pharmacy chain based in Toronto, Ontario.[4] It has more than 1,300 stores in ten provinces and two territories.[2]
The company was founded by pharmacist Murray Koffler in 1962;[2] the Koffler family still retains ownership of the Super-Pharm pharmacy, which has locations in Israel, Poland, and formerly in China (as Ensure from 2005 to 2011).[5] Super-Pharm's logo is similar to that of Shoppers Drug Mart, which was created by the artist Sylvain Liu. It also uses some of the same private-label brands, such as Life Brand and Quo.
In 2014, Brampton-based Loblaw Companies acquired Shoppers Drug Mart for $12.4 billion in cash and stock.[6] By early 2016, Shoppers had over 1,300 locations in Canada.[7]
