Galenica AG is a Switzerland-based integrated healthcare company primarily engaged in pharmaceutical distribution, retail pharmacy operations, and healthcare logistics. Through its Galenica Santé division, the company serves patients and healthcare professionals with a network of community pharmacies, homecare nursing services and digital health offerings. Its retail pharmacy brands include Amavita and Sun Store, which provide prescription medications, over-the-counter products, health advice and wellness solutions across the Swiss market.
In addition to its retail presence, Galenica operates a comprehensive logistics platform under Galenica Logistics, supplying medicines, medical devices and consumer health products to hospitals, pharmacies and healthcare facilities. The logistics segment encompasses warehousing, temperature-controlled distribution and value-added services such as packaging and serialization. This integrated supply chain model helps ensure product availability, regulatory compliance and traceability throughout Switzerland’s healthcare infrastructure.
Headquartered in Bern, Switzerland, Galenica traces its origins to the consolidation of regional pharmaceutical wholesalers and pharmacies in the early 2000s. In May 2020, the company completed the separation of its former pharmaceutical manufacturing and specialty medicines business, creating an independent Vifor Pharma Group and enabling a concentrated focus on distribution, retail and services. Today, Galenica continues to expand its footprint in Swiss healthcare, investing in digital health solutions and home-care offerings to meet evolving patient needs.
