The occasion
What it is usually about
The occasion is usually taking over a pharmacy or opening a branch. Alongside that comes the conversion of existing premises. Succession is a reason in its own right.
Professional law
Professional-law specifics
A pharmacy is run personally and may only be operated by a licensed pharmacist; a corporation as operator is ruled out. At most one main pharmacy and three branch pharmacies are permitted.
The professional-law information reflects the position under the relevant professional statutes. Chambers handle individual questions differently; the information from your own chamber is what counts.
The financing
What follows for the financing
Financing runs on the individual, not on a company, and liability is personal accordingly. Stock and customer base drive the purchase price more than the fittings do.
Getting started
The first step
Work out the range in advance. What the calculator returns is an order of magnitude, not a commitment; how it applies to your case is something we discuss at the appointment.
Arrange an appointment
Bring what you have – we assess what the bank will read into it.
