Bilquis Drugstores were established in 1970 as
 family
owned company in Sana'a – Yemen. The foundation stone of Bilquis
Drugstores was the Sana'a based pharmacy "Bilquis" which is still
operating till date.
1978 – A separate division was set up. This division dealt with the
import business of pharmaceuticals and baby milk. Bilquis Drugstores
could then represent many World pharmaceutical companies and could
expand its activities to cover the whole Yemen market. Besides,
Bilquis Drugstores received many requests from foreign companies
that want Bilquis Drugstores to represent them in the territory of
Yemen.
Other sales branches were opened later in other cities as well.
2000 – Efforts were made to expand the activity into the foodstuff
business. Market survey was carried out accordingly, and
consultations were submitted to the general management.
Two years later, the foodstuff division was inaugurated. Products
were then imported from some World companies specialized in this
field.

goods distribution through its branches and representatives
