The cooperative Coopidrogas reported operational revenues of 4.6 trillion pesos in 2025, a 14.6% increase from the previous year. This figure reflects strong performance in the pharmaceutical sector, driven by key categories such as antihypertensives and analgesics. Additionally, the entity expanded its network with a new logistics hub in Galapa.
Coopidrogas, the National Cooperative of Retail Druggists, ended 2025 with operational revenues of 4.6 trillion pesos, marking a 14.6% growth compared to 2024. According to Iqvia data, the cooperative achieved a market share of 33.7% in units and 29.3% in value. This progress is mainly due to increases exceeding 36% in sales of products like antihypertensives, analgesics, antidiabetics, antibiotics, and cold remedies.
Daniel Quirós B., general manager of Coopidrogas, highlighted the year's performance: “this year has been one of the strongest for us. Not only did we reach record figures, but we demonstrated that the cooperative model continues to be one of the most competitive and sustainable business structures in Colombia's pharmaceutical sector”.
The entity also received the La Orden Civil al Mérito José Acevedo y Gómez award in the Gran Cruz degree, granted by the Bogotá Council, underscoring its contributions to development, employment, and health access.
In terms of expansion, Coopidrogas concluded 2025 with 10,159 active pharmacies, adding 1,587 new establishments nationwide, which enhanced coverage in large, intermediate, and rural municipalities.
A key milestone was the opening of a new headquarters in Galapa, Atlántico, with an investment exceeding 108 billion pesos. This infrastructure boosts operational capacity in the Caribbean region, handling 1,200 daily orders, mobilizing over 30 million units annually, and serving 193 municipalities across eight departments.
Quirós emphasized: “The new Galapa headquarters is not just a logistical expansion; it is a strategic platform that redefines Coopidrogas's presence in the region, boosts the competitiveness of the independent channel, and prepares us to meet the needs of an increasingly demanding market”.
