This well-established independent pharmacy is situated on a highly visible corner of a commercial shopping street within a vibrant commercial and residential neighborhood in Essex County, Massachusetts, approximately 25 miles north of Boston.

Owned and operated by the family’s third generation, the pharmacy has been a trusted community fixture since its founding in 1905. The current owner owns the building, and the business is proud to remain independent, with no intention of selling to a chain currently operating in 2500 SF.
While the pharmacy operates at a lower volume, it holds significant untapped potential. It is the only independent pharmacy in the area, offering ample opportunity for growth in various areas, including service expansion and operational improvements. Currently, the pharmacy does not offer delivery, immunizations, or COVID-19 testing and vaccinations, leaving room for these valuable services to be introduced.
