Ackermans Pharmacy emerged victorious, receiving more than 1 000 additional votes compared to the runner-up.
This timing of the win was perfect because the pharmacy celebrates its 75th anniversary this year and has just moved into new premises.
“We are incredibly grateful to all of our loyal customers who contributed to making us the winner of the Pharmacy of the Year competition,” said pharmacist Johan van Wyk.
