EXPOPHARM 2024

Expoharm is the leading international trade fair (B2B) for pharmacies, pharmaceutical retail and pharmaceutical services. The event connects manufacturers, wholesalers, IT/automation partners, service providers, and healthcare professionals around innovation, operational excellence, and patient-centered care—from prescription processing and logistics to digital care and new revenue streams.

Why participate EXPOPHARM?

Expoharm positions the pharmacy as a healthcare platform: a place where clinical services (vaccination, POC testing, medication review) go hand in hand with efficient processes and strong retail execution. On the show floor, you compare pharmacy software, e-prescription workflows and robotics that reduce waiting times, reduce errors and free up team hours for care. Serialization, FMD compliance, and traceability become tangible with live chain demonstrations, including refrigerated logistics and management of high-value/at-risk products.

For the clinical dimension, adherence, polypharmacy reviews and prevention are central. Cases show how to set up care pathways and reimbursement, including documentation and outcomes registration. OTC & dermocosmetics are all about category architecture, shelf efficiency and perception value, supported by data-driven planograms and shopper marketing. Compounding zones bring together cleanroom design, equipment, qualification, and QA/QC best practices—from risk assessment to process validation.

Digitization and omnichannel are the common thread: integration of webshop and delivery, click & collect, CRM/loyalty and campaign management that helps care and turnover move forward. The knowledge programme translates strategy into implementation with practical sessions on KPIs (service level, stock turnover, margin mix, workflow times), financing/leasing, HR & training and ESG routes (energy, packaging, waste streams). Matchmaking and solution sprints accelerate decisions: you test, compare and finalize agreements on implementation, services and service levels.

In short: Expoharm is the seasonal driver for pharmacy teams who want to add up care quality, efficiency and returns. You leave with validated choices, a roadmap for digitization and services, and partners who will co-implement on the floor tomorrow.
