Our Story So Far

about us

Our corporate story began in the year 2004 when Afonchies Pharmaceutical Limited was founded and registered to cater to pharmaceutical needs in the community pharmacy sector of Nigeria's biggest commercial hub, Lagos state.

As a community pharmacy brand, we have come a long way having experienced progressive growth in well over a decade of our operations. Starting with one community pharmacy outlet, we have expanded to an eight-branch community pharmacy network in the upscale neighbourhoods of Lekki-Ajah, on the island of Lagos State.

While this progressive expansion is considered a remarkable feat, our management team isn’t resting on its oars. We are devising expansion strategies to shore up our capacities to open up more community pharmacies in Lagos state so as provide more qualitative and timely pharmaceutical services, as well as medicines to the teeming unserved and underserved populations in the state.

"We are devising expansion strategies to shore up our capacities to open up more community pharmacies."

Our Mission

Our Mission is wrapped in a five- point statement, which captures our promises to both the communities we serve, and the people who work with us to achieve these promises.
