Enzymatica, through its partner AHA Worldwide Ltd, has signed an agreement with the Lloyds pharmacy chain to sell the common cold product ColdZyme® in the UK. The agreement means that this winter ColdZyme will be available in about 1 300 Lloyds pharmacies. The product launch is planned for December 2015.
The partnership initially covers the smaller package size ColdZyme OneCold 7 ml, which is a key entry product for new customers. After a short evaluation phase, the larger size of the product will also be considered for launch.
"In accordance with our strategy, we are introducing ColdZyme into another British pharmacy chain in order to reach more consumers and strengthen our presence in the important UK market. Through the partnership with Lloyds we are almost doubling the number of outlets in the UK, which should increase interest in the product from both consumers and potential distributors. Our intention is to find a partner to take responsibility for the entire supply chain, including market investment," says Fredrik Lindberg, CEO of Enzymatica.
