TRAINING SESSIONS
WITH PHARMACIES

Consumers often seek information on the product they intend to purchase and have queries w.r.t its nutrient information, dosage etc at the point of sale. Therefore, it is critical to strengthen and upgrade skills and knowledge of the personnel involved at point of sale of such products.

A kick-off session organized for Apollo Pharmacy Ltd., with participation from
approximately 200 Apollo pharmacy stores.
 
Addressing the program with Apollo Pharmacy Ltd, Ms Rita Teaotia, then Chairperson-FSSAI said
“There is a need to now scale-up these programs to cover larger geography in the country and hope to see wiser and more rationale usage of this category of products.”

RECHAN scaled up the program and covered over 2000 Apollo stores and intends to continue this partnership to cover its all 4300 stores across the country. ReCHaN has covered 14 states across India through on line and off line sessions and scaled this across other pharmacies as well.
