Blackberry Hearing, a premier Irish-owned and operated hearing aid provider, has secured a significant partnership deal with Uniphar. This collaboration enables Uniphar pharmacies across Ireland to offer customers free hearing consultations conducted by Blackberry Hearing audiologists. The initial rollout commenced in March 2025 and now covers 59 convenient pharmacy locations nationwide, with further expansion planned throughout the year. Pharmacies involved are McCauley, Hickey’s Pharmacy, Allcare Pharmacy, and Life Pharmacy. Relevant pharmaceutical names known with local Irish communities.
Each pharmacy will prominently feature Blackberry Hearing point-of-sale materials, banners, and informational leaflets. Ultimately spreading awareness on the importance of hearing health. Additionally, pharmacy staff have received dedicated training tailored to help identify the early signs of hearing loss and understand the broader health implications associated with untreated hearing conditions.
