Raylane Pharmacy Group has expanded its portfolio by acquiring Evans Pharmacy in Worcestershire. With this new addition, the independent community pharmacy chain has increased its total number of branches to 10. Located in the centre of Malvern Link in Worcestershire, Evans Pharmacy dispenses approximately 10,000 items per month. The acquisition follows the retirement of the previous owner, Philip Hawkes, who had managed the business for over a decade. The sale was facilitated by Christie and Co through a confidential process, and the transaction price remains undisclosed. Commenting on the deal, Carl Steer, director-pharmacy at Christie and Co, said: "The sale represents a perfect addition to an already successful group for Raylane Ltd. "The instruction proved popular, and the completion represents another sale for Christie and Co in a record year for pharmacy sales."
