Lloyds Pharmacy
- Les (15th Mar 2023 - 11:12:34)
Lloyds seems to be selling off a lot of their stock. I hope they're not closing it, which seems to be happening to Lloyds in other places.
They're not perfect, but it's an important local resource and we'd be lost without it.

end of financial year soon, lots of retail businesses run their stocks down low at this time for accounting reasons

It will probably be called a different chemist.

The private equity company that bought Lloyds last year is currently undertaking a review of all the estate. They are selling off most of the sites, so the local pharmacy will stay only if there is a private buyer. If not, then it will close.
There is no profit to be made in pharmacy anymore, as non-prescription items are cheaper online or in supermarkets. Like most high-street stores they are under threat from online shopping and lack of foot-fall.
