SOLD – Pharmacy on the west side of Los Angeles for sale. Located in a medical building, this store has been in business for 36 years. This pharmacy does retail prescriptions and has loyal customer base. The owner is a pharmacist and employs one full time clerk who is willing to stay on after the sale. The owner is also willing to stay on as a consultant and/or pharmacist (not as the PIC but would work a couple of days a week) which will insure a smooth transition to the buyer.
The owner is ready to retire. The pharmacy is not doing much business filling only 30 prescriptions per week, so the business is a great opportunity for a new pharmacist/owner to take over instead of starting a store from scratch with can take a lot of time and money. Because the pharmacy is located in an affluent area, they do not have Med-i-cal but have all other major insurance contracts. Owner is willing to carry a note on a portion of the sale price.
This is a great opportunity for a pharmacist who wants to own their own business. All insurance
contracts are in place and the license is clean with the Board of Pharmacy and DEA
