Closing with B.Grimm Pharma, another flagship business of B.Grimm, which has been pivotal since its establishment in 1878, tracing back 145 years to the first Western-style pharmacy in Thailand known as “Siam Dispensary.” Bestowed with the title of Royal Pharmacy since the reign of King Rama V, it marks the inception of B.Grimm’s business philosophy rooted in the company’s commitment to holistic business practices for the benefit of society.
