“I was very satisfied with the price I received (which was higher than I expected), as well as the knowledge that the small business I devoted so much of my time to continues to thrive in the face of intense industry competition.”

“After owning Auburn Pharmacy for 13 years, I decided it was time to devote more time to my family and therefore chose to list my business. From the outset it was imperative that I “dotted the i’s and crossed the t’s” when it came to choosing the right broker to facilitate this process. Key factors such as a realistic price appraisal, confidentiality, reasonable terms and conditions, integrity, professionalism and empathy were of paramount importance. After meeting with various brokers, the person who made the greatest impression on me and met these criteria was Stewart Grigg. I am glad to say that in hindsight my decision was vindicated.

Selling a pharmacy business can be a very lengthy and stressful experience. It requires the co operation of many entities to ensure that settlement takes place. Stewart was the central link and was more than capable of consolidating all the intricate parts of the puzzle that constitute the back and forth of negotiating processes. This allowed me to focus more on my day to day work rather than trying to tie up all the loose ends. His communication was accurate, structured and geared towards a favourable outcome.

I was very satisfied with the price I received (which was higher than I expected), as well as the knowledge that the small business I devoted so much of my time to continues to thrive in the face of intense industry competition. Overall there were one or two of the usual hiccups – negotiations with solicitors/landlords – but in the main the whole sales process was an “orchestra” that had a very capable “conductor” in Stewart Grigg. As such I have no hesitation in recommending him as an ideal hard working broker for your business, and of course wish you every success with your sale and future.”
