Nirmal Bajaria, former owner of N.B. Pharmacy, comments, “Having run the pharmacy for around 39 years, it was a difficult decision to put the business up for sale. I was very pleased with the high number of viewers and feel delighted that a young family bought my pharmacy.”

Mark Page, Director – Medical at Christie & Co, who handled the sale, comments, “The pharmacy received multiple bids due to its prominent trading position, proximity to the local surgeries and the main M2 motorway, as well as the potential of the business. I’m delighted for Venkat and Preeti, who I feel are a great fit for the area and will introduce some fresh ideas to the pharmacy. I also wish Nirmal a very happy, long, and well-deserved retirement.”

N.B. Pharmacy was sold for an undisclosed price.
