Informations

dm drogerie markt is the largest drugstore chain in Central and Eastern Europe. The first store opened in 1973 in the German city of Karlsruhe and the first store in Austria opened 1976 in Linz. 

In the next few years dm developed and fully conquered the German and Austrian market. Since 1992 it has expanded to the markets of Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Italy.

dm in Bosnia and Herzegovina was founded in 2005 and the first dm store in Bosnia and Herzegovina opened in June 2006 in the Sarajevo settlement of Dobrinja. Today, dm is represented throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina with 75 stores that are organized to high dm standards. The company employs over 62,000 people throughout the Group, of which over 700 work in dm stores across Bosnia and Herzegovina, the dm distribution center and the dm headquarters. dm has been in the top 10 most desirable employers in BiH for ten years and has been named the most desirable employer in BiH six times.  

The dm product range in Bosnia and Herzegovina includes over 14,000 beauty and health products, baby and household products, pet food, textile goods and seasonal products from both world-renowned and domestic manufacturers. This diverse range is complemented by 32 dm brands. Organic foods and natural cosmetics occupy a special place in the whole range.

dm has set itself the goal of acting as a business model in its environment. Assistance to socially disadvantaged groups, support and campaigns aimed at educating children and young people, raising environmental awareness and being active in environmental protection are the areas in which the company has made its greatest contribution to date. The last in a series of socially responsible activities was the Giving Friday initiative under the motto #givingisthenewblack: dm donated 5% of the turnover generated on 29/11/2019 to prepare meals for consumers of national cuisines in BiH.
