The Jean Coutu Group (PJC) is one of Canada's leading drugstore chains with a network of more than 350 franchised PJC Jean Coutu, PJC Clinique, and PJC Santé Beauté outlets in New Brunswick, Ontario, and Québec. The company dominates the Québec market but trails rivals Shoppers Drug Mart and Katz Group in overall store count. PJC provides support services, warehousing, and distribution of nearly 18,000 pharmaceutical products and consumer goods. In mid-2007 the company sold its troubled US subsidiary, the Brooks Eckerd chain of more than 1,850 drugstores, to Rite Aid in a cash-and-stock deal valued at about $4 billion. The sale made PJC Rite Aid's largest shareholder with about 30% of the firm's shares. To read the full description, subscribe now.

Competition

Competitive Landscape for The Jean Coutu Group (PJC) Inc.
Demand for new housing depends on population growth and is linked to low interest rates. Large builders have some advantages in purchasing and marketing, but building methods are essentially the same for large or small builders. While larger builders have efficiencies because they can repeatedly build the same home models, they generally develop projects on large pieces of land. Small builders, therefore, build most homes in dense urban markets where little land is available. To read the full description, subscribe now.
