The Shoprite Group opened its third standalone Medirite Plus pharmacy in the Western Cape at Somerset Square in Somerset West. 

This follows the opening of the first Medirite Plus in Willowbridge Village late last year and the second in Stellenbosch earlier this year.   

A one-stop health and wellness destination, Medirite Plus offers an affordable and accessible product range that includes wellness, personal care, baby products, fragrances, and skincare by brands such as Geve, Revolution Skincare, Neutriherbs and Skin Functional. 

Customers can fulfil all their pharmacy needs with qualified, professional pharmacists on duty to assist and advise. Medirite Plus also stocks specialised healthcare items like wheelchairs, walkers and crutches.
