Pharmacy pricing: manage your unregulated prices with the rigor of a major distributor

No, and it's not necessary: ​​their prices are set by regulations, there's no pricing to manage. BOOPER focuses on the unregulated pricing categories (non-reimbursable medications, over-the-counter products, dermocosmetics, hygiene, nutrition), where price positioning and a significant portion of the pharmacy's margin are determined. Our article on pharmacy pricing between regulations and margins details the distinction between the two.

Yes. The BOOPER MPS pricing software allows you to create recommended prices by zone for the network and monitor their implementation pharmacy by pharmacy. Each owner remains free to set their own prices: the tool informs decisions, it doesn't impose them. The group gains a more consistent pricing image, and each pharmacy has a well-supported pricing framework to compare with its local competitors.

By continuously monitoring their prices and comparing products based on capacity and format, we can ensure accurate price comparisons. Price surveys and web scraping cover online sites and can be supplemented with in-store price checks. Product matching brings together equivalent products and converts each price to a unit price, allowing for a direct comparison of a 40ml cream to its 50ml equivalent without skewing the price difference.

Because a uniform markup on the purchase price ignores the price sensitivity of each product. It makes the pharmacy too expensive on products that customers compare and leaves a profit margin on products purchased on recommendation. BOOPER sets rules according to the role of each product, which improves both price perception and profit margin. Our article on the pharmacy's over-the-counter pricing method details this approach.

By isolating the actual profit of each operation, pharmacy by pharmacy, the promotion management system measures additional sales and the impact on sales at the regular price, distinguishing between operations that create value and those that simply shift it. The reference price for a discount announcement is the lowest price charged over the previous 30 days (Article L112-1-1 of the French Consumer Code). BOOPER automatically checks this before any discount announcement.

Pricing software tailored to a pharmacy group or network must be able to focus on products with unrestricted pricing, compare products by volume against online pharmacies, generate recommended prices by area, and measure sales operations. BOOPER combines these capabilities in a single platform, the BOOPER MPS pricing software , which activates key components such as price surveys and web scraping , product matching , Pricing Optimization Software , and promotion management . BOOPER, a French pricing software publisher since 2014, supports around fifty companies in France, Poland, Vietnam, and Thailand, across more than 4,000 points of sale and €44 billion in managed revenue. Our clients typically see a 0.5 to 3 percentage point increase in margin within a few months. To compare market solutions, see our retail pricing software comparison .

Typically, the process takes 2 to 4 months, starting with a specific product category (dermocosmetics or over-the-counter medications) and a sample of pilot pharmacies. A pricing analysis within this scope allows us to quantify the potential before rolling out across the network. Your data is uploaded via the Data Loader, with no connector required to begin.
