Topics we master

Set up and operate a mail-order pharmacy

tiger.PHARMA combines the workstreams of a mail-order pharmacy in one resilient programme. We assess feasibility and the business case, design the operating model, coordinate partners and support the e-pharmacy through controlled go-live and routine operation.

  • Feasibility, target groups, assortment and business case
  • Location, company, operator and partner model
  • Roadmap for authorisations, premises, people, technology and QMS
  • Integrate shop, e-prescription, merchandise system, warehouse and carriers
  • Mock audit, go-live readiness, hypercare and operational improvement

Mail-order pharmacy in Germany

For a German mail-order pharmacy, tiger.PHARMA supports the extension of a public pharmacy into an inspection-ready mail-order operation. Authorisation, pharmaceutical responsibility and the real end-to-end process are prepared together.

  • Structure the requirements for a public pharmacy and mail-order authorisation
  • Plan premises, staffing, QMS, advice and prescription processing
  • Design packing, identity checks, temperature control and handover
  • Connect e-prescription, shop, payment and merchandise-management processes
  • Translate returns, complaints, recalls and data protection into SOPs

Mail-order pharmacy in another EU country

tiger.PHARMA develops operating models for a mail-order pharmacy based in another EU country and supplying additional European markets. Authorisation in the home country and the requirements of each destination market are planned as one operating architecture.

  • Country matrix for home country, destination markets, assortment and sales routes
  • Local pharmaceutical responsibility and permitted market role
  • Coordinate EU common logo, registers, notifications and authority contacts
  • Prescription, reimbursement, pricing, advertising and advice requirements by market
  • Coordinate tax, privacy and legal matters with competent advisers

Mail-order pharmacy in the Netherlands

For an e-pharmacy in the Netherlands, tiger.PHARMA supports market and location assessment, operator and qualified-person models, website registration, product assortment and the operational link to Germany and other European destination markets.

  • Separate UR, UA, UAD and AV assortments for the business model
  • Clarify pharmacy, provider and qualified-person structure with local partners
  • Register the website with CIBG and implement the common EU logo correctly
  • Design product information, advice, ordering and supply by destination market
  • Build procurement, hub, carrier, returns and cross-border service

Mail-order pharmacy in Czechia

For a mail-order pharmacy or e-pharmacy hub in Czechia, tiger.PHARMA connects local operating requirements with warehousing, procurement, technology and cross-border supply. One operational basis is the current SÚKL guideline LEK-16 version 7 on zásilkový výdej. It has applied since 2 January 2026, is recommendatory and describes SÚKL's current interpretation of the Czech mail-order model.

  • Structure the pharmacy and mail-order model against SÚKL LEK-16 version 7
  • Separate eligible OTC medicines from prescription-only, restricted and ineligible products
  • Prepare pharmaceutical leadership, qualified staffing, information service, premises and QMS
  • Assess locations including western Czechia and Cheb from a logistics perspective
  • Coordinate export, destination-market, carrier, temperature, collection-box and returns processes

SÚKL LEK-16 version 7

tiger.PHARMA translates LEK-16 into an inspection-ready operating model for Czech mail-order pharmacies. Shop, staff, product data, advice, dispatch, records and cross-border destination markets are designed as one pharmaceutical process chain; final legal and regulatory assessment remains with the competent authorities and advisers.

  • Only the operator of an authorised pharmacy may be responsible for mail order and medicine-related order acceptance; active third-party intermediation between pharmacy and patient is excluded
  • A managing or delegated pharmacist throughout mail-order operating hours plus an adequately staffed, linguistically suitable pharmaceutical information service
  • SÚKL notification of start, interruption, closure and website changes; EU mail-order logo with SÚKL sublicence and registry link on every relevant offer page
  • Mandatory shop data and advertising controls covering product name, SÚKL code, strength, pack size, pharmacotherapeutic group, price, delivery and complaint terms
  • Packaging and transport in line with the SmPC; quality responsibility through handover or collection, audit rights over carriers and continuous temperature recording for collection boxes
  • Dispatch normally within 48 hours and delivery within three days, or timely customer information; retain dispatch records, including temperature data and SOPs, for at least five years
  • Cross-border matrix for registration, supply classification and destination-market rules; store foreign-language packs separately and use them only for the intended market

Destination-market compliance and cross-border supply

An EU mail-order pharmacy needs a clear release path for every country supplied. tiger.PHARMA builds the destination-market matrix and translates requirements into shop rules, product releases, customer communication, dispatch and documented responsibilities.

  • Eligible assortment and prescription route by delivery country
  • Price controls, reimbursement, payment flow and invoicing logic
  • Mandatory information, advertising, language and pharmaceutical advice
  • Privacy, consent, identity and age or recipient verification
  • Change monitoring, blocking rules and documented release

GDP, QMS and mail-order logistics

tiger.PHARMA designs the mail-order pharmacy as a controlled quality chain from inbound goods to patient handover. Packaging, carriers, temperature, returns and deviation decisions are built product-specifically and for scale.

  • QMS, SOPs, training and responsibility matrix
  • Storage, packing, FEFO, batch and expiry processes
  • Packaging and route concept for standard and temperature-critical products
  • Carrier qualification, SLA, tracking and delivery events
  • Returns, temperature deviations, CAPA, recall and business continuity

Data, shop, e-prescription and pricing

We connect product, price, availability and competitor data with e-pharmacy operations. Products become findable, accurately described, commercially calculated and available only in permitted markets.

  • PZN, GTIN, product status, mandatory data and images
  • E-prescription, merchandise-management, ERP, WMS and shop interfaces
  • Purchase prices, terms, availability and alternative sources
  • Price waterfall covering payment, delivery, returns and marketing
  • Approvals for content, assortment, price and destination market

Go-live and continuous mail-order operations

tiger.PHARMA supports the mail-order pharmacy beyond design. Readiness reviews, tests, training and hypercare stabilise launch; KPIs and quality data then guide growth and continuous improvement.

  • End-to-end testing from order and prescription to delivery and return
  • Mock audit, deviation scenarios and documented go-live approval
  • Training for pharmacy, customer service, warehouse and partners
  • KPIs for availability, conversion, margin, OTIF, returns and quality
  • Continuous improvement of partners, processes, data and destination markets

SEO, product data and AI visibility

Search engines and answer systems need unambiguous product, ingredient, use and service data connected through a clear information architecture.

  • PZN, GTIN, active ingredient, dosage form and pack size
  • Separate medicine, condition and e-prescription search intent
  • Indexable category, guide and product architecture
  • FAQ, breadcrumbs, structured data and internal links
  • Editorial approval, freshness and pharmacist review

Does tiger.PHARMA support routine operation after go-live?

Depending on the mandate, we support KPIs, data quality, procurement, availability, partner governance, QMS, deviations, mail-order logistics, pricing and controlled expansion into additional destination markets.

How can an online pharmacy become visible in Google and AI answers?

Use one clear page per intent, complete medicine and ingredient data, concise answers, expert review, structured data, consistent internal links, canonicals and current sitemaps. Avoid thin or near-duplicate pages.
