Why Work At Clicks
Striving towards exceptional Pharmaceutical Care
Since opening the first Clicks store in St George's Street, Cape Town
in 1968, the brand has become South Africa's leading specialist retailer
of health, beauty and lifestyle products, servicing the middle to upper
income market. With the long-awaited changes in legislation enabling
appropriate ownership of retail pharmacies in 2003, the Clicks dream of
having an in-store pharmacy became an exciting reality. The first Clicks
Pharmacy was opened in March 2004 and by the end of 2005 Clicks has already become
the biggest retail pharmacy chain in South Africa. Beyond establishing
an extensive national footprint and being the industry-leading provider
of exceptional Pharmaceutical Care, our vision is to be the best
discount drugstore in South Africa.
