Dr Bharat Shah CBE

Bharat qualified as a pharmacist from the University of Bath in 1971 and ran an independent pharmacy in Watford from 1977, where Sigma was born.  His passion and dedication to the independent pharmacy sector, and his deep understanding of the healthcare industry was key in driving the company.  His achievements have been recognised and seen him earn several awards.  Bharat was proud to receive a doctorate from the University of Bath in 2013 for his services to pharmacy.

As a distinguished fellow of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, and with over 40 years of pharmaceutical experience, he is recognised in the industry as ‘an Ambassador’ for pharmacy.  Bharat is an avid Formula 1 fan, and is keen on giving back to the Asian community.  He is involved with numerous charitable organisations serving as a trustee or chairman.
