CARiNG Pharmacy was established in 1994 by 5 pharmacists, who were course-mates in the School of Pharmacy, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM).

The first CARiNG Outlet opened in Taman Muda, Cheras. At the time, the awareness of community pharmacy services was still low. The founders, took these important steps to instill the value of pharmacists in the healthcare profession by:

1. Providing 12 hours a day, 7 days a week full time pharmacist service.

2. Providing easily accessible pharmacist counseling service, free blood pressure checks and other health checks at a minimum fee.

3. Designing the store with a modern, open concept to maximise interaction with customers and merchandise.
