Amid rising healthcare and living costs, Generika Drugstore has partnered with Metro Retail Stores Group Inc. (MRSGI) to expand access to quality, affordable generic medicines and basic healthcare services by opening Generika Drugstore branches in Metro Retail locations nationwide.

Built on a shared commitment to value and accessibility, the partnership combines Metro Retail’s “right product, right price, great value” and Generika Drugstore’s Ginhawang Generika mission, ensuring Filipino families can access essential medicines without compromising their household needs.

“These are tough times. Many Filipino households are still forced to choose among competing priorities. But through this partnership, we offer consumers a clear path towards good health without compromises — a path that can help guarantee their own as well as their family’s future,” said Generika Drugstore President and Chief Executive Officer Adrian Gino Guinto.

For more than 20 years, Generika Drugstore has been delivering its promise of ginhawa sa bulsa with up to 85 percent savings compared to branded medicines; ginhawa sa plus services with in-store free blood pressure checks, scheduled Libreng Konsulta with partner doctors, and affordable diagnostics with mobile laboratory partners; and ginhawa sa katuwang with its friendly and knowledgeable pharmacists, ready to empower Filipino families to take better care of their own health and their families’.

ABOUT US

The Philippine Retailers Association (PRA) first came into being as the Chamber of Philippine Department Stores and Retailers, Inc. (CPDSRI) in 1976. In 1991, after winning the bid to host the 6th Asian Retailers Conference and Expo, the bi-annual event of the Federation of Asian Retail Associations (FARA), the Chamber changed its name into Philippine Retailers Association and adopted the now famous shopping bag logo.
