KUSURI NO AOKI HOLDINGS CO.,LTD. ( (JP:3549) ) has shared an update.

Kusuri No Aoki Holdings reported February 2026 all-store sales at 109.8% of the prior-year level, with existing-store sales at 99.8%, reflecting steady overall growth but slightly softer performance at mature locations. Customer traffic at existing stores fell to 95.6%, though higher average spending per customer, up 4.4% at existing outlets, helped offset the decline in visits.

The company continued its expansion strategy between January 21 and February 20, 2026, opening five new drugstores in Niigata, Miyagi, and Aichi prefectures and four dispensing pharmacies in Osaka, Nagano, Kyoto, and Saitama. This mix of retail and pharmacy openings supports its integrated healthcare and daily-goods model, broadening market coverage and positioning the chain for longer-term growth despite near-term moderation in like-for-like traffic.
