About this business
A compact online pharmacy run from Portsmouth by a team of 5, trading since 2021. It sells a focused range of treatments and health products through its own website and online marketplaces, and dispatches by post. Turnover has stayed around £1.4m each year, but EBITDA has improved steadily from £292k to £338k, so the business now keeps close to a quarter of every pound it takes. There is no shop or lease, which keeps overheads low. It would suit a buyer who already runs a pharmacy and wants to add a profitable online arm.
Key investment highlights
- EBITDA of £338k on £1.4m sales
- Margin of about 24%
- Small team of 5
- No lease or shop overheads
Reason for sale
The founder is focusing on a separate health business he launched last year.
