About this business
A large online pharmacy run from Bristol, trading since 2014 and supplying prescription treatments, everyday medicines and wellbeing lines to patients all over the UK. Turnover has grown every year, from £11.19m in 2021 to £13.3m, while EBITDA has fallen from £3.08m to £2.68m as the business spent more to win new customers. Margins remain healthy at about 20%. Forty people work across pharmacy, dispatch, technology and customer service. There are no premises in the sale. The asking price is £21m, and a buyer would be taking on a sizeable, profitable operation with room to work on costs.
