MyHealthChecked secures major Boots UK contract to supply own-brand health tests from 2025 - a transformative high street win for the AIM-listed diagnostics firm.
This article covers information on MyHealthChecked PLC.
LON:MHCCardiff-based health diagnostics firm MyHealthChecked (AIM: MHC) has just landed a significant commercial win, announcing a new supply agreement with pharmacy giant Boots UK. This isn’t just a rubber stamp; it’s a tangible validation of their product range and a major step onto the UK’s most prominent health and wellness high street platform.
Under the terms of the 12-month contract (with obvious renewal potential), MyHealthChecked will become the supplier behind Boots’ own-branded range of home health tests. The initial launch, scheduled for August 2025, will feature a substantial 13-test portfolio:
This moves MHC beyond purely online or niche retail distribution into the heart of mainstream consumer healthcare.
CEO Penny McCormick rightly highlights the deeper significance: “We have developed a strong working and commercial relationship with Boots over the past four years”. This isn’t a sudden deal plucked from thin air. It’s the culmination of a four-year partnership, suggesting Boots has confidence in MHC’s supply chain reliability, product quality, and commercial alignment.
Boots expanding its *own-brand* wellness range using MHC as the supplier speaks volumes about the latter’s capabilities. It positions MHC as a trusted white-label partner for major retailers – a potentially lucrative and scalable business model.
Boots’ extensive store network and online presence offer unparalleled consumer reach. This deal instantly catapults MHC’s products (albeit under the Boots brand) into the hands of millions of potential customers, significantly boosting revenue potential.

While the initial term is 12 months, successful consumer uptake makes renewal highly probable. This isn’t a one-off product sale; it’s the foundation for a potentially long-term, stable revenue stream supplying a major retailer.
Securing a contract with a household name like Boots serves as a powerful endorsement. It validates MHC’s technology, operational efficiency, and product-market fit in the competitive consumer diagnostics space. This credibility is invaluable.
The RNS explicitly mentions the “change in mindset” as consumers embrace accessible, preventative healthcare. Boots investing in expanding its *own-brand* wellness test range directly taps into this growing trend. MHC, as the engine behind this range, is perfectly positioned to benefit.
The August 2025 launch date is now the critical milestone. Smooth execution – manufacturing, supply chain logistics, and supporting Boots’ marketing – will be paramount. Success here could open doors to supplying other major retailers or expanding the range with Boots.
This deal underscores MHC’s strategic shift towards leveraging its expertise as a B2B supplier for major brands, alongside its direct-to-consumer offerings. It’s a pragmatic move that leverages their core strengths within the rapidly evolving home diagnostics market.
For investors, this RNS signals tangible commercial progress and significantly de-risks the growth story. It transforms MHC from a promising player into a company with a concrete, high-profile revenue channel. The Cardiff team will be rightly celebrating tonight – this is precisely the kind of partnership that can propel a niche health tech firm firmly into the mainstream. The challenge now? Making that August launch a resounding success.
