Each
week, millions of customers in eight countries
and regions in Asia shop at Watsons Your Personal
Store. Asia's leading health & beauty
chain dates back to 1828, when the Canton
Dispensary was first founded as a clinic to
provide free medical aid to the poor in Canton,
China.
Building on its long-standing reputation for
quality and innovation, Watsons Your Personal
Store offers more than 25,000 products in
some 700 outlets. Products range from medicines,
cosmetics and toiletries to fashion items,
confectionery, cards, and toys.
Watsons Your Personal Store has adapted quickly
to the varied and rapidly changing tastes
within each market, proving its ability to
cross cultural and geographic boundaries.
Expansion has been rapid since the early 1980s
when Watsons had just nine stores in Hong
Kong. Successful strategies have resulted
in significant market penetration and the
chain is expanding at a rate of 70 new outlets
a year. Most recently, 50 new outlets were
opened in the Philippines in 2002, adding
to its operations in Hong Kong, Mainland China,
Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and
Macau.
In recent years, the Watsons brand has "reinvented"
itself in line with the proposition of helping
customers "Look Good, Feel Great, Have
Fun"! Watsons Your Personal Store has
introduced a new bright, contemporary feel
to its stores, as well as providing unique
programmes of personalised advice and counselling
in beauty, health and baby-care.
Watsons' continued success across Asia has
established it not only as the top beauty
and personal care retailer, but also as Asia's
leading pharmacy chain providing health care
products and advice to local communities.
