Superdrug Personal Care Products

Superdrug is a major health and beauty retailer that was founded in 1964 by Ronald and Peter Goldstein. Originally starting as a small pharmacy chain in the United Kingdom, it has grown to become the second-largest health and beauty retailer in the country. The brand is well-known for its extensive range of private-label products, which include everything from skincare and hair care to cosmetics and health supplements.

While the brand's roots are firmly planted in the UK, its ownership and supply chain are global. A significant portion of its own-brand manufacturing is conducted within the UK to ensure quality control and meet local regulatory standards; however, certain specialized components and formulations are sourced from manufacturers in Europe and Asia. The brand is particularly distinguished by its commitment to vegan and cruelty-free products.

Since 2002, Superdrug has been a part of AS Watson Group, which is the world's largest international health and beauty retailer. This ownership places Superdrug under the umbrella of CK Hutchison Holdings, a multinational conglomerate based in Hong Kong. This global backing has allowed Superdrug to expand its digital footprint and maintain a competitive edge in the high-street retail sector.
