Significant influence will be exerted on this industry from various variables, especially the growing number of products going on the market, with the increasing number of blockbuster drugs significantly increasing sales; the aging population increasing the industrys target market; and the advancement of technology, allowing drug stores to reach a wider market via the internet. However, this has been offset by a loss of market share to other retailers such as mass merchandisers and grocery stores.
