Buying A Pharmacy

Washburn & Associates is a national company that handles the valuation, negotiation, and transfer of ownership of pharmacies. We start the process with targeted acquisition searches based on a qualified buyer’s parameters.

 

Jack Washburn is the owner of Washburn & Associates.  Jack has been working in the pharmacy industry since 1972, and Jack is known for his pharmacy expertise and is respected industry wide for his integrity and knowledge.  Jack's skills and valuations are respected not only by hundreds of pharmacy chains and independents, but also by the largest financial institutions.

When deciding between completing an acquisition yourself, or to use Washburn & Associates, you will need to weigh several factors including skills, knowledge, and time. We can provide expert skills. Knowledge is power and we have extensive know how in valuing and transferring pharmacies. Transactions are time consuming. When doing it yourself, how many additional hours will you need to work to complete the transaction and then still not be certain if all the details were done correctly?

Acquisition searches we conduct are targeted and specific to the buyer.Washburn & Associates - Buy A Pharmacy This allows us to provide the buyer with real prospects. We don’t want to spend the buyer’s time with transactions that don’t meet the buyer’s parameters. All searches and information is kept confidential.

The targeted acquisition process alone can be an expensive and laborious process. We do not simply list pharmacies and then put them in the classifieds ads. Washburn & Associates does targeted acquisition searches and transactions for qualified buyers at no cost or obligation to the buyer. By the time we have completed our entire process of interviewing, the detailed analysis, a site survey, etc., Washburn & Associates has substantial cash and time invested.

Buyers requesting Washburn & Associates services in conducting a targeted acquisition will either need to be pre qualified for the financing, or show proof of ability to complete a cash transaction. When a potential buyer needs assistance in the financing process Washburn & Associates can provide business plan development, and presentation to lenders.
