Mercury Drug Corporation or Mercury Drug is the largest pharmacy chain in the Philippines. == History == The company began in March 1, 1945 with a single drugstore owned by Mariano Que. He named it after Mercury, the messenger of the gods in Roman mythology, whose caduceus is sometimes used as a symbol of medicine. The store began cutting packaged, bulk items into single pieces and selling them individually; this practise is colloquially called ''tingí-tingì'' in Filipino. Upon the invitation of Ayala Corporation, Mercury Drug opened its second branch in May 1963 at a developing commercial center in Makati now known as the Ayala Center. In 1965, Mercury Drug established its landmark branch by Plaza Miranda, Quiapo, Manila, which is notable for its large outdoor LED screen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher=Mercury Drug )〕 Mercury Drug opened a new building, MDC100, in Eastwood City, Quezon City. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mercury Drug」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
