Services · Website development · Pharmacy websites
Codeeo handles pharmacy website development in Riyadh for chains with branches spread from Al Malqa to Al Aziziyah, independents beside hospitals and clinics, and pharmacies inside malls and office towers. We build the Arabic first site people open before they get in the car: which branch near them is open tonight, what the pharmacist there can help with, and how to ask a question without queuing. Your own team edits hours, services and notices from a simple CMS.
This page covers the information and enquiry website. Selling medicines online with a basket and checkout is a separate, licensed project, and we keep it apart. Our Riyadh office means discovery can happen at your head office or in a branch. Workshops are scheduled around your busiest counter hours.

What the website covers
Riyadh is large, and a resident in Hittin has little interest in a branch in Al Shifa. Most visits to a pharmacy site in the capital are practical: a parent late at night, an employee near King Abdullah Financial District on a lunch break, a family collecting a repeat medicine after a hospital appointment. The site has to answer where, when and who within a few taps on a phone.
The features below are what we usually scope for Riyadh operators. We rank them by the questions your counter staff field most often, so the first release removes real phone traffic rather than adding pages nobody reads. Good pharmacy website design in Riyadh also respects the setting: calm colours, readable Arabic type at large sizes for older patients, and nothing that looks like a discount flyer. Trust is the product here, and the visual language should feel closer to a clinic than a supermarket.
Branches grouped by district, such as Olaya, Al Yasmin, Al Nakheel, Al Sulaimaniyah or Al Rawdah, with distance from the visitor, today's hours and a directions link. Where a branch sits near a Riyadh Metro station, the page says which one, which helps people who now commute by train. Branch managers can mark temporary closures for maintenance or stocktaking.
Visitors pick a branch they can actually reach.
A schedule tool that handles late night branches, Friday hours and the very different timings during Ramadan and Eid. Head office sets a seasonal pattern once and every branch page switches on the right date, with exceptions for individual stores. Pharmacists on night duty can also be listed by name if you choose.
No more customers arriving at a branch that closed early.
Clear pages for the services your licence covers, such as medication reviews, blood pressure or glucose checks and advice on long term medicines, each explaining what happens and how to request it. Your responsible pharmacist signs off every page in the CMS. Each page also lists which branches offer the service.
Clinical services become something people search for and find.
If your branches dispense through Wasfaty, the site shows which ones take part and explains, in plain Arabic and English, what a patient should bring. We describe the service accurately and link to nothing we cannot vouch for. Participation flags are edited in the branch record, so they never drift out of date across pages.
Fewer wasted trips by patients holding an electronic prescription.
A secure form for availability questions about a prescribed item, routed to the branch the visitor chose. Uploads are stored encrypted, kept off the public web server and deleted on a schedule you set, in line with the PDPL. The branch team replies by phone or secure message, never by public comment.
Patients ask questions without sending prescriptions over open chat.
A separate route for companies in Olaya and the business districts that want first aid restocking, wellness days or a supply arrangement, captured with the fields your account manager needs and pushed to your CRM. Each lead is tagged with the district and the page it came from.
Business leads reach a person who can quote, not the counter.
Right to left layouts designed first, not mirrored afterwards, with an English version that keeps the visitor on the same page when they switch. Medicine and service terms are checked by a pharmacist, not an automatic translator. Numbers, dates and phone formats are tested in both directions.
Saudi families and expatriate residents read the same clear information.
Large tap targets, readable contrast, screen reader labels in both languages and pages that stay light on mobile data. We test against WCAG guidance and Core Web Vitals, because a slow or awkward page loses the patient who needed a quick answer about an open branch. Copy for each branch is written separately, never duplicated with the district swapped.
Older patients and busy parents can use the site without help.
One page per branch with unique content, Pharmacy structured data and the same name, address and phone details used on its Google Business Profile, so each store can appear for searches like pharmacy in Al Malqa.
Branches show up in map results for their own district.
Roles for marketing, branch managers and the responsible pharmacist, with approval steps and a log of who changed what. A dashboard shows calls, WhatsApp taps and enquiries per branch, gathered with consent. Exports are available for your own reporting tools. Branch managers see only the stores they run.
Management sees which districts generate demand online.
Who this is for
A pharmacy website is a public health communication as much as a marketing asset, so accuracy and restraint come first. Product claims must respect SFDA rules, and patient information must be handled under the PDPL. Within those limits, the right site depends on how your business is set up across the city. Most of our Riyadh conversations start from one of the four situations below, though many groups recognise themselves in more than one.
With many branches, the hard part is data. We build one source of truth for addresses, hours, services and staff contacts, feed every branch page and Google listing from it, and give area managers permission to update only their own stores. New openings in growing districts go live from a template in an afternoon. Reporting by district then shows head office where online demand is growing before a new lease is signed. Branch page templates also include space for the area manager's direct contact, so complaints and compliments reach someone senior quickly rather than sitting in a general inbox.
Consistent data matters more than design flourishes at this size.
Patients leaving King Fahad Medical City or a private hospital often need a nearby pharmacy that has their medicine. A focused site with a clear location page, a stock enquiry form, Wasfaty details if you take part and fast mobile loading can win those visits without a large build. We also make sure the page works well for relatives searching on behalf of an older patient. Clear parking notes and photographs of the entrance matter more than you might expect for patients arriving from a hospital with a prescription in hand and limited time.
A small, accurate site often beats a large, vague one.
Branches in business districts see weekday lunch peaks and corporate customers. We give these sites a business enquiry route, opening hours that reflect office life and pages for wellness services employers ask about. Corporate leads can feed your CRM so a named account manager follows up within the working day. Content about workplace health services, written with your pharmacists, gives HR teams in nearby towers a reason to get in touch instead of ordering from a supermarket.
Treat company buyers as a separate audience with their own form.
Old sites often list closed branches and carry product claims nobody approved. We audit the content, map every old URL to a new one, keep the search value you already have and retire anything that no longer meets current advertising rules. We also check accessibility, page speed and consent, which older pharmacy sites in the city often lack. Your team approves the redirect map before launch, and we monitor Search Console afterwards to catch any address that slipped through. Old promotional banners are archived, not deleted, in case you need a record of what was published.
Redirects protect rankings you have already earned.
How we work
Codeeo has a team of 80+ across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, and has delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US. For Riyadh pharmacies, the local team runs workshops face to face and the wider team handles design and engineering. You get one project lead, written scope, fortnightly reviews and access to the staging site throughout, so nothing reaches the public before your pharmacist has seen it. Choosing a pharmacy web development company in Riyadh is partly about who will still answer the phone after launch, so support terms, response routes and who holds the admin accounts are all written into the agreement before work begins.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We usually build on WordPress or Next.js with a headless CMS, chosen by how many branches you run and who will edit. Hosting can sit in a Saudi data region where your data policy requires it, behind a firewall and monitored for uptime. Pages are built to load quickly on mobile data, because many visitors are standing in a car park or a hospital corridor when they search.

It depends on branch count, languages and how quickly content is approved.
A single branch site with Arabic and English moves faster than a chain with dozens of district pages and a CRM connection. The slowest step is rarely code; it is gathering accurate branch data and getting health content approved. We set the plan after discovery and write the dates down before design starts, so your team knows when reviews will land and who needs to be available for them. Custom pharmacy website development in Riyadh for a large group may run in phases, starting with branches and services and adding corporate pages and integrations afterwards.
