According to Business Market Insights research, the Middle East & Africa pharmacy automation systems market was valued at US$ 250.23 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 457.17 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.8% from 2022 to 2030. Growing adoption of robotic pharmacy is among the critical factors attributed to the Middle East & Africa pharmacy automation systems market expansion.

In the healthcare sector, automated systems are incorporated into different processes to provide information about stock and inventory, and aid in traceability and streamlined storage. Thus, automation relieves pharmacists from labor-intensive distributive functions and enhances workflow efficiency in pharmacies. Moreover, the adoption of robotics and automated systems is rising in pharmacies in developing regions. In 2023, Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center deployed TUG robots to carry medication from the level two pharmacy to the newly constructed inpatient units located in the Patient Pavilion of the hospital in Lebanon. In March 2022, Emirates Health Services (EHS) announced the launch of four robotic pharmacies under its robotic pharmacies project. The EHS implemented its project in Abdullah Bin Omran Hospital for Obstetrics & Gynecology, Al Qassimi Hospital, Ibrahim Bin Hamad Obaidullah Hospital, and Al Qassimi Women's and Children's Hospital. The organization states that the dispensing systems incorporated in these hospitals are integrated with robots. The launch of robotic pharmacies is also expected to confer customer satisfaction and build their confidence in pharmacy services. Leading pharmacy automation system vendors continuously focus on developments and introduction of their innovations. In February 2021, Omnicell Inc. announced the launch of its Medimat system. Medimat is a next-generation, automated dispensing system for retail pharmacies. Medimat has been built for improved patient safety, efficient time utilization, and financial savings. Similarly, in August 2021, innovativeAspirations (iA), a commercial provider of software-enabled pharmacy fulfillment and automation solutions, launched three solutions that are integrated with Medimat's NEXiA technology to manage the fulfillment of prescribed medicines centrally. iA has also introduced SmartPod, a next-generation robot with a modular autofill unit. SmartPod allows pharmacy providers to adjust and scale their centralized fulfillment solutions. Thus, the growing adoption of robotic pharmacies with the introduction of next-generation automated systems fuels growth of the pharmacy automation systems market.
