<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.vrbusinessbrokers.com/Listing/Independent-Pharmacy-Great-Location.aspx</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Since its founding in 2005, this pharmacy has enjoyed rapid growth. It is located near a large medical complex that provides a strong base of customers and referrals. Prescriptions account for over 95 percent of revenues and currently average about 150 prescriptions per day. The business is absentee-owned and is well staffed with pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. Note that the cash flow figure stated above is for a full-time owner working as the pharmacist-in-charge.

Additional growth could be realized by expanding the over-the-counter portion of the business, by adding durable medical equipment offerings, and through addition of other consumer products.

This is an excellent acquisition opportunity for a licensed pharmacist seeking to own his/her independent pharmacy. It also represents an attractive opportunity for an existing network of pharmacies to expand its revenue base while capitalizing on increased purchasing economies.

The acquisition has been pre-qualified for an SBA guaranteed bank loan. A qualified buyer may be eligible for a financing package of 75% or greater of the total project costs, including working capital financing.

<description><![CDATA[ This branded gas station and convenience store is located just off of the exit of a major interstate and is the only service station available in its vicinity. As a result, the business is able to achieve excellent margins on both gas and inside items. 

Gas volume is approximately 35,000 gallons/month at an average pool margin of $0.25 per gallon!. Inside sales represent about 25% of total sales and account for about about 65% of gross margin. The store also sells lottery and accepts EBT. Operating expenses are relatively low, enabling a new full-time owner to enjoy a very profitable business. Cash sales generally represent over half of total sales. Financial details are available under a confidentiality agreement.

A few years ago the station was rebranded to its present brand and the facilities received major renovations including the addition of new multi-product dispensers, a new fiberglass tank, fiberglass piping, a new concrete platform, expansion of the canopy, and new signage. The storage system consists of two regular unleaded tanks, one premium tank, and one diesel tank.

The facility sits on over 2 acres of land, so there is room for further expansion to include additional offerings such as a car wash or food service. The real estate is included in the sale.
