Dear all,
For the Netherlands the stats are as follows:

Turnover per pharmacy approx Dfl 4 million / pharmacy
Number of pharmacies approx 1600 (we sell OTC, but that also is
in a druggist channel, pharmacies sell approx 60% of all OTCs)
Each pharmacy serves approx 10 000 people, range 6000-18000
Per pharmacy there are approx 1.4 pharmacist and 6 assistant
