Pharmacies and drug stores have endured moderate volatility in recent years. Retailers have benefited from a growing and aging population, as older consumers require medication to address chronic ailments, resulting in higher volumes of foot traffic. Similarly, the number of people with private insurance and public funding for Medicare and Medicaid has been on the rise, giving more people access to insurance and supporting demand for prescriptions, pharmacies' largest product segment. These trends, along with consumers increasingly prioritizing their health, have supported revenue gains, causing revenue to grow at an estimated CAGR of 1.1% to $609.6 billion through the end of 2025, including growth of 3.6% that year alone. Pharmacies have endured some challenges during this time, including heightened external competition from big-box stores and online-only pharmacies. With big-box stores offering consumers added convenience, pharmacies have expanded their services to offer some primary care services and grow delivery offerings. Many pharmacies and drug stores have invested in online platforms to service customers who prefer to shop online. The trend of online shopping will intensify in the coming years, and successful drugstores will be positioned to capitalize on the surge in demand. Pharmacies and drug stores have also focused on marketing personal care products, which often have higher prices, to capture additional revenue; however, unfavorable macroeconomic conditions directly harm these product lines because of their less-essential nature and higher access to substitutes. Pharmacies and drug stores will continue to benefit from the ongoing economic recovery, as cooling inflation encourages consumers to make more discretionary purchases like cosmetics and other personal care products. This growth will be fueled by the expansion of store services, including preventive care options and additional front-end offerings. As the number of insured individuals swells, many consumers will continue to fill their prescriptions because of the low out-of-pocket costs. As conditions for the industry improve, so will profit, rising along with revenue. Revenue is expected to climb at a CAGR of 2.6% to $692.0 billion through the end of 2030.
