LloydsPharmacy

Once the need for such temporary accommodation was identified, LloydsPharmacy turned to the best-known name in the industry – Portakabin – for help. The company first purchased a single Pacemaker building, chosen from Portakabin's product range of portable cabins, which was fitted out as a complete mini-pharmacy.

LloydsPharmacy was impressed by the quality of the building, as well as the service from Portakabin, and over the next few years added to its fleet as demand for temporary accommodation increased. The firm now owns three Pacemaker buildings and three larger Titan buildings, all fully fitted with a retail area, consultation area, staff room and office.

"It is essential that our temporary pharmacies provide the same high-quality environment that our customers expect from our permanent pharmacies – and they need to look good from the outside too. That’s why we chose Portakabin, since the quality of the buildings met all of our requirements."

John Heath, Shop Fitting Manager at LloydsPharmacy says, "We have been very happy with the service from Portakabin – they are always attentive and helpful and, in all the years I have dealt with them, they have never failed to fulfil their promises or meet their deadlines. When the regulations governing access to public buildings changed, Portakabin was very quick to help us meet the requirement for wider doors."
