Our history During our long history, a number of esteemed names in our sector have been involved in creating the LloydsPharmacy we know today, and provided us with an enviable launch pad for the future. Such names include Savory & Moore, Allens Chemist, Cross & Herbert, R Gordon Drummond, Kingswood GK and, of course, Lloyds Chemist and Hills Pharmacy. In 1995 GEHE AG purchased AAH plc (the UK’s leading pharmaceutical wholesaler), going on to acquire Lloyds Chemists PLC, which at the time had 902 pharmacies, in 1997. Together with AAH’s 350-strong Hills Pharmacy network, this took the combined group to over 1,250 pharmacies; a number that has now grown to over 1,500 pharmacies within the UK, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. In 2014 McKesson Corporation acquired our group of companies, and the UK group later rebranding to McKesson UK in 2018.
