The new branch cements her growing footprint in Ghana's healthcare sector just twelve months after launching her first branch in East Legon.

The opening on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, drew a notable gathering of public figures, including veteran broadcaster Gifty Anti, actress Irene Opare, Roselyn Ngissah, gospel musician Empress Gifty, who joined guests to mark the occasion, and actress and newly sworn-in ambassador to Spain, Kalsoume Sinare.

Speaking at the ceremony, Selassie Ibrahim described the new outlet as a significant milestone despite its modest outward appearance, noting that it represents a considerable commitment of time, capital, and energy and is only the beginning of a larger ambition.

The Sel Pharma concept, she noted, is built around a model that goes beyond conventional pharmacy services.

The actress noted that the business would operate around the clock, offer delivery options, and is designed with a retail-friendly layout that welcomes walk-in customers regardless of whether they are seeking treatment, blending healthcare access with everyday convenience.

The 2025 YEN Entertainment Awards nominee traced the origins of the venture to persistent encouragement from people in her inner circle roughly a decade ago, at a time when she considered herself unqualified for the healthcare space.

With the involvement of her brother, a UK-based pharmacist, and a close friend, she eventually gathered enough momentum to bring the idea to fruition last year with the East Legon launch.
