For the past 10 years the number of Rossmann stores in Germany have seen an almost continuous growth. In 2025, their numbers reached 2,386 stores. The company’s other stores are situated across multiple Eastern European countries. Outside of Germany, Poland has the largest number of the Rossmann stores with over 1,800. The company has been expanding its presence for several years in all markets it has been active in. 

The wider Rossmann company

The drug store company, whose complete name is Dirk Rossmann GmbH, was founded by Dirk Roßmann in 1972, with the opening of a single store in Hannover. By now the company’s total revenue amounts to over 15 billion euros (over 9 billion in Germany alone) and it serves on average 1.9 million German customers every day. The company is for the greater part still family owned.

Rossmann’s main competitor

The company’s biggest competitor is the dm-drogerie markt GmbH & Co. KG or dm for short. Even though the company’s store numbers are below those of Rossman, the company surpassed Rossman’s revenue by over a billion euros.
