Pharmaprix Opens New Store in Saint-Georges, Beauce

A new, modern location that improves access to primary healthcare services, offers a wide selection of beauty products and everyday essentials, and creates approximately 30 jobs in the community. 

Saint-Georges, Québec – October 29 – Pharmaprix is proud to announce the opening of its first-ever store in the Beauce region, located at 17330 Boulevard Lacroix in Saint-Georges. Spanning just over 12,000 square feet, the new pharmacy marks Pharmaprix's arrival in the region and supports the local economy through the creation of approximately 30 jobs. It provides residents with convenient access to primary healthcare services, with extended operating hours from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, as well as a wide range of beauty products, personal care items and everyday essentials, all in a modern and welcoming environment. 

Primary Healthcare Services for the Beauce Community 

With its dedicated Pharmacy Care Clinic, the new pharmacy helps improve access to primary healthcare services. Patients will have access to prescription services, as well as medication assessments and treatment optimization by a pharmacist. Pharmacists will provide personalized advice and a range of pharmacy services tailored to their patients' needs, including vaccinations, chronic disease management and consultations for common health conditions. 

“We are very pleased to open the first pharmacy affiliated with our Pharmaprix network in Beauce and establish our presence in the region. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to connect more closely with the local community and help improve access to healthcare. Pharmacists play an essential role in primary care, and we want to provide them with a modern environment that enables them to effectively meet their patients' needs. We also look forward to introducing residents to everything this pharmacy has to offer, from healthcare and beauty to convenient neighbourhood services,” said Ali Nassiri, Vice President, Pharmaprix. 

For Senamin Skevie Ahouansou, the new pharmacist-owner who recently established herself in the region, this opening represents a unique opportunity to build lasting relationships with the community. 

“It is with great pride that my team and I welcome the people of Saint-Georges to our new pharmacy. My experience as a patient care attendant taught me just how much listening and caring for others can make a difference. With this in mind, we want to provide a warm and welcoming environment where patients can rely on accessible, compassionate professionals who take the time to understand their needs. Our priority is to build trusting relationships with our patients and support them every day in managing their health,” says Ahouansou. 

A One-Stop Destination for Health, Beauty and Everyday Essentials 

In addition to its pharmacy services, the new store offers a wide selection of beauty products, cosmetics, fragrances, skincare products and everyday essentials.
