The Lochting platform
Pharmacies aren’t slow or old-fashioned. They’re busy, complex, and under constant pressure. Online competitors are loud. Expectations are higher. Margins are tighter.
Lochting exists to level the playing field.
It’s one platform that connects everything a modern pharmacy needs: online, in-store, and beyond. Built to help local pharmacies stay visible, relevant, and competitive.
What is Lochting?
Lochting comes from an old Dutch word for “garden.” A garden survives because everything works together. Same idea here.
Developed with Meditech Pharma, Lochting is a digital setup designed around the real strengths of local pharmacies. You won’t win on price alone and you don’t have to. Speed, trust, advice, care, and human contact still matter. A lot.
Lochting helps you turn those strengths into a clear, modern customer experience. There are 3 core solutions.
Webshop
An appealing webshop. Easy to manage. No IT skills needed.
Patients find products and services in one place, from vaccinations and workshops to rentals and care programs.
Digital signage
In-pharmacy touchscreens for products, promotions, and health topics.
Content is managed centrally via Lochting, making updates fast and keeping full control in your hands.
Vending machines/lockers
A 24/7 solution for para-pharma products and webshop order pickup.
Customers collect when it suits them, even outside opening hours, all managed from the same Lochting platform.
Competing with online pharmacies (without pretending to be one)
Online shops can’t dispense prescriptions. Pharmacies can.
That still brings people through the door. And once they’re there, something else happens: real advice, real answers, real trust.
Patients come in better informed, ask better questions, and get advice tailored to them. That’s not something an algorithm can fake.
Add to that accurate stock info and fast pickup times. Often same day. Online players usually need one or two days just to ship. When it’s urgent, speed wins.
With the current solutions, pickup doesn’t even depend on opening hours.
Smart automation, less work
Lochting keeps things fresh without adding work. For instance, automatic product widgets update monthly based on the season. Summer shows sun care and insect protection. Winter switches to vitamins and immunity. No action needed.
Screen and vending content runs automatically. Create your own content, or let Meditech Pharma handle it. Monthly updates, seasonal themes, brand-focused displays. You choose the brands. The rest runs on autopilot.
Less manual effort. More consistency. Fewer things to worry about.
