Sigma Healthcare

Sigma Healthcare Limited is an Australian company involved in the wholesale and distribution of pharmaceutical products. Operating approximately 1,200 branded and independent pharmacies, it manages well-known names such as Amcal+, Chemist King, and Guardian. The company also offers a range of private label products, including skincare, vitamins, and beauty essentials. In addition to retail, Sigma Healthcare provides hospital pharmacy services, specialty medication support, dosage administration aids for aged care, and technology solutions for pharmacies. The company focuses on expanding into unregulated revenue streams due to the challenges posed by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme price reforms, which limit profit margins in regulated areas. Founded in 1912 and headquartered in Rowville, Australia, Sigma Healthcare Limited was previously known as Sigma Pharmaceuticals Limited until its name change in 2017.
