The opening of Kimbe 2 further strengthens City Pharmacy’s commitment to providing quality and affordable healthcare and wellbeing retail services to the people of West New Britain, and Papua New Guinea.
City Phamacy Kimbe 2 was officially opened with a traditional singsing group, led by CPL Chief Executive Officer, Navin Raju, West New Britain Governor, Sasindran Muthuvel and WNB Provincial Health Authority CEO, Dr. Joseph Nali as well as CPL staff.
CEO of CPL, Navin Raju said that CPL Group is a publicly listed Papua New Guinean company and to open their second shop in Kimbe is really to provide quality and accessible health and beauty services.
“We’re happy to be here as we are now also looking at opportunities with local SME’s and farmers, and we can buy and sell your popular West New Britain Taro in our supermarket, Stop & Shop, in Port Moresby. It just takes a bit of partnership and work, and we’ll get there”.
In addition, Governor Muthuvel expressed what a great pleasure it was to welcome the further investment that City Pharmacy has made in the province.
“We are thankful for the confidence CPL Group has to place a second shop in our town.”
