LONDON, Jan. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Planalytics Inc. announced today that
Lloydspharmacy, a leading pharmacy chain with more than 1,700 stores in the

sales across its store locations.

drinks and other consumables to medicines and various health-related items,"

will help Lloydspharmacy to better align its business with the weather, from
being prepared for increased or decreased footfall to adjusting inventories to
match changes in demand."
