Spinneys joins forces with Aster Pharmacy to add health spin to its supermarkets

News

UAE-based supermarket chain Spinneys has teamed up with Aster Pharmacy to add holistic wellness products to its stores across the UAE.

The joint venture seeks to address the country’s surging consumer demand for high-quality health products at affordable prices.

The concept will stock a wide range of high-quality vitamins, minerals, health supplements, specialist superfoods and eco beauty products.

The first concept stores are expected to launch in Q4.

CEO of Spinneys, Sunil Kumar, said: “We are excited to partner with Aster Pharmacy to launch the first supermarket wellness concept in the UAE.

“As a truly local supermarket, the community is our heartland and it is our mission to nourish and inspire customers to live better lives, day by day.

“We are dedicated to understanding our customers’ needs, their shopping behaviours, and what we must do to help them live better.”

The collaboration reflects eco-conscious initiatives adopted throughout the country’s retail sector.

“We are excited about this new chapter with Spinneys, as together we can offer UAE customers a convenient, accessible way to shop for the very best health and wellness products. With decades of experience between us, we’re confident of delivering an exceptional customer experience and look forward to welcoming visitors later this year,” said Alisha Moopen, deputy managing director of Aster DM Healthcare.

According to Ken Research, the UAE nutritional supplements market is set to continue its growth next year, accelerated by surging health awareness post Covid-19, various government initiatives and an increase in personal disposable income.

“This joint venture reaffirms our commitment to the people of the UAE to make a meaningful difference in the communities where we operate. With growing demand from conscious consumers for supermarkets to provide a broader variety of health and wellness products under one roof, we are on a mission to innovate and expand our retail offering to make healthy living more accessible and convenient,” said Mr Kumar.
