Parfetts is expanding its own-label medicines with the launch of Go Local Paracetamol Tablets, following the earlier success of Go Local Ibuprofen. Available in 16-tablet packs, the new product is designed to deliver strong retailer returns, offering a profit-on-return of 62.1% at a £1.00 RRP more than double the average for branded equivalents.
The tablets come in shelf-ready trays with branded packaging and blister packs, giving them the professional look of a branded product while providing shoppers with real value and trusted medicinal content.
This launch underscores Parfetts’ growing focus on own-label products, which now comprise over 250 lines and account for 22% of total sales. More than 35 new products are planned for 2025 across impulse, grocery, and bakery categories.
