About us.

The Friendlies Chemist was established in Townsville in 1881. We are a community owned pharmacy committed to providing high quality services and products for our members and customers.

With a history of over 130 years serving the Townsville community, The Friendlies Chemist is proud to come back to our foundation and trade once again as The Friendlies Chemist. We were trading as Chemmart Pharmacy for a period, which delivered great value for our members, however to keep up with the changing needs of our community, we have decided that we will return to our original trading name. 

Our members and customers will still see the same smiling staff, the same professional pharmacists and the enjoy the convenience of the same location. It's just a new name. We're pretty excited! We look forward to welcoming you at The Friendlies Chemist in Castletown next time you visit.
