CPL Group reaffirms commitment to improving customer experience with Store Upgrades across retail network.

For close to 40 Years, CPL Group continues to operate over thirty-five Retail Stores Nationwide in our network, ensuring that healthcare remains not only accessible to Papua New Guineans, but also affordable and of high quality.

In addition to opening brand new retail locations to better reach the Community, City Pharmacy continues its ongoing investment in upgrading existing retail stores, bringing a better shopping experience and more product variety to our valued customers. The upgrade program is supported by the Group’s long-term growth strategy in Medical and Healthcare.

City Pharmacy is pleased to advise on the successful relocations of several existing stores in our network, completed within the past three months. These are:

  • City Pharmacy Lihir – relocated from Anitua Supermarket to Anitua Hardware
  • City Pharmacy Buka – relocated directly adjacent to the previous location
  • City Pharmacy Madang 1 – relocated from Modilon Rd to Kasagten Rd
  • City Pharmacy Hagen 3 (Dobel) – relocated from the old Tininga Supermarket Building, to the new Dobel Central Complex.

The relocated stores are now all operational, with reported customer experience and foot traffic immediately improving.

“For CPL Group, investing in healthcare also means also investing in our retail store experience, ensuring City Pharmacy remains convenient and accessible within the growing communities we serve,” said CPL Group Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ajay Patel.

A fifth store relocation at City Pharmacy Port Moresby General Hospital is expected to be completed before the end of 2026, while further upgrades and new stores are expected to be opened in various stages in 2027, coinciding with the Group’s 40th Anniversary.

This includes new City Pharmacy Medical Clinics, expanding our specialist healthcare services with Dental, Optometry, Radiology and more, as the Group continues its vision to helping Papua New Guineans live better and healthier lives.

CPL Supports PIH’s 13th Globe-athon 2026

CPL Group is proud to support Pacific International Hospital’s (PIH) 13th Globe-athon 2026, taking place on Sunday, 27 September 2026, reaffirming our commitment to promoting healthier communities throughout Papua New Guinea.

The Globe-athon is an annual cancer awareness walk dedicated to raising awareness about cancer prevention, education, and the importance of early detection, particularly for women’s cancers. The event brings together healthcare professionals, corporate partners, community groups, and members of the public in a united effort to support those affected by cancer and advocate for better health outcomes.

As a long-standing supporter of initiatives that promote health and wellbeing, CPL is pleased to contribute to this meaningful cause. Through our sponsorship and participation, we join PIH and other stakeholders in encouraging greater awareness, healthier lifestyles, and proactive health screening practices.

Cancer continues to impact many individuals and families across our communities, making awareness and early detection more important than ever. The Globe-athon serves as a reminder that collective action can make a significant difference in reducing the burden of cancer and supporting those affected by the disease.

We commend PIH for its leadership in organising this important annual event and for its continued commitment to advancing cancer awareness in Papua New Guinea.
