About this business
A dispensing pharmacy in a Portsmouth suburb, open since 1998 and trading from freehold premises that are included in the sale.

Turnover has held at about £1.6m, while EBITDA has grown in most years from £232k in 2021 to £327k as costs were brought under control. Nine people work there. It could also be relocated by a buyer wishing to combine it with another pharmacy, though the freehold gives the option of staying put without rent.
