Company Overview

Douglas Chemists is one of Australia’s oldest pharmacy networks, operating pharmacies under the brands of Priceline Pharmacy, Discount Drug Stores, Good Price Pharmacy Warehouse and Soul Pattinson Chemists. Established in 1972 by John Douglas when he opened his first pharmacy (John Douglas Chemist) in Goulburn NSW, which he still owns to this day now trading as Priceline Pharmacy Goulburn. The business has grown to a dynamic partner lead model with pharmacies across QLD, NSW, and the ACT, many in rural communities. John still works in the various pharmacies, he is a hands-on person who is passionate about developing people particularly pharmacists and creating career pathways. John is committed to each of our pharmacies and visits each of them regularly to spend time with the teams, the customers and the community. The goal is to continue to improve and keep up to date with the constant changes in pharmacy to ensure we exceed our customers’ needs, so they become advocates of the business. Both John’s sons are Managing Partners at Yass Priceline Pharmacy and Crookwell Soul Pattinson.
