History

The company gradually expanded throughout the 1990s, before acquiring the one hundred strong Supersave chain of drugstores from GHEA. The company grew to 176 stores before being sold to A.S. Watson, the retail and manufacturing arm of CK Hutchison Holdings, the Hong Kong based conglomerate in July 2000.{{citation needed|date=May 2013}}

Subsequently, A.S. Watson acquired Kruidvat BV, the owner of the Superdrug chain. Following this, many Savers stores were converted to the Superdrug format. {{citation needed|date=May 2013}}

Customer service operations are based at Superdrug's head office in Croydon, London, while and the company's registered office is Hutchinson House, Battersea, London.

As of 2019, Savers operates over 400 stores.[1]
