UK Meds
UK Meds is an ambitious business based in the United Kingdom. While they started out as an online pharmacy selling prescription drugs in the UK, it quickly grew and started to get traction also in other regions, such as Germany, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Now they operate multiple brands in the industry - from traditional pharmacy ones to veterinary pharmacies like UK Pet Drugs.
In this case study:
About the project
The collaboration started many years ago when UK Meds was looking for a professional Magento agency to help with maintenance and some complex business requirement implementation. After we took over the project for maintenance, UK Meds were pleasantly surprised about our way of working. So we were trusted to build their other brands and in the long run have already rebuilt most of the original UK Meds project.
Client Challenges
The pharmaceutical industry is heavily regulated and requires a close collaboration with governments where the business operates. That brought some challenges and the ambitions and plans to enter different markets added some more. The main ones were:
- Build and maintain phramacy stores to pass all security and governmental regulations and requirements
- Quickly launch various startup ideas in the health and wellness space to validate the market reaction to them
- Digitize and innovate so UK Meds is the leader in online drug sales, including selling prescription drugs
- High stakes environment as the site sells also prescription drugs which distribution is overseen by governmental regulators
- Very high speed and quality requirement that most agencies couldn’t provide
The role of Magebit
Where digital magic comes to life
At Magebit we strive for excellence. Projects with such high standards and requirements are very interesting because this is where we can truly shine and undoubtedly show the client the difference from typical agencies. Among our duties this cooperation included:
- Strategic planning and guidance
Guidance of technical solutions as well as new project strategy suggestions. - Compliance and audits
Auditing the codebase, ensuring highest security standards, building a resilient and highly secure infrastructure are just a small part of our involvement in the compliance of this project. - 24/7 Emergency support services
When regulators come and require changes, they need them now. With our emergency support services we were able to deliver what was needed, when it was needed. - Long-term dedicated team
We act as an extension of their business unit that understand them from half-word, and overall reduce the communication needed to make good decisions together.
