    IJ Pharmacy started off with a small outlet in Sutera Mall Shopping Centre in 2008 by Pharmacist Tan Su Yee. With an employee force of 4, the operation grew modestly to become a profitable entity.However due to family migration, she had to give up the dream of growing IJ Pharmacy. Then her friend, which is also our current Managing Director, Datin Chang Sam Yee bought over the store towards the end of 2012 and continue to realise the dream of growing IJ Pharmacy into a bigger chain.As of 1st January 2017, IJ Pharmacy is a medium chain pharmacy with over 32 branches in operation and is among the Top 5 pharmacy chain Malaysia.
