Clicks said on Monday it planned to acquire 25 in-store pharmacies, their drug stocks and staff from retailer Pick n Pay .
In a joint statement the companies said the sale, subject to regulatory approvals, would not have a material impact on the earnings or financial position of either of them.

Pick N Pay chief operating officer Adrian Naude said its small pharmacy division was not part of its future growth strategy.
