History of the Hofgarten Apotheke

The “international Hofgarten Apotheke” was established by pharmacist Mrs. Margret Hennemann in 1974. At this particular time Bonn was a well developing university city. In consequence of the additional function as federal capital, Bonn increasingly became the residence of international audience. Mrs. Hennemann has early recognized this business and thus arranged the Hofgarten Apotheke.

Special strengths were

• high competence of the employees in consultation (numerous pharmacists with the license to practice)
• providing various languages (in particular Arabic dialects)
• a wide-ranging and large-scale depot
• high delivery readiness

With regard to its furnishing the Hofgarten Apotheke has also been future- oriented. As one of the first pharmacy’s it was completely visible from the outside and transparent.

The pharmacy’s service portfolio has been extended in the following years. Cornerstones were among other things the delivery service to medical offices and to many German embassies worldwide.

Due to the reconstruction of the Kaiserpassage Mrs. Henneman extended her store and established a second saleroom in the passage. This was also designed after new aspects in order to offer optimal support in terms of health and wellness.

Mrs. Hennemann unexpectedly passed away in the beginning of 2002 and Mrs. Andrea Forst-Raasch has taken over the pharmacy continuing the tradition of Mrs. Hennemann.
