Do small and medium-sized chain pharmacies sell them?

If you are the owner of a small and medium-sized pharmacy chain, and a leading company wants to acquire your store, will you sell it? Some bosses admit that they do not reject mergers and acquisitions, but they should be "active participants, not abandoned ones"

In the stock market, mergers and acquisitions accelerate

In the pharmacy industry in the past ten years, the drama of "large and small chain reorganization and mergers and acquisitions" has been staged

In the past 2021, there have been a series of "big" mergers and acquisitions by the head chain

Although the head chain is making great progress on the road of "mergers and acquisitions", the sales growth rate of the entire industry is gradually declining

While the market growth rate is slowing down, the growth rate of the number of pharmacies is increasing

It is not difficult to see that the pharmacy industry has entered the era of "stock competition"

Sell ​​the store, or a last resort

For the head chain, one of the fastest ways to increase the market size is to acquire small and medium-sized chains

For example, some pharmacy owners have the idea that even if the pharmacy industry environment is poor, they can survive through gritted teeth.

In addition, some small and medium-sized chains feel that the head chain has obvious advantages in resources, but its own strength is weak, and they can take advantage of mergers and acquisitions to improve their store management capabilities

Contrary to the above point of view, some excellent small and medium-sized chains seem to be at ease when dealing with mergers and acquisitions

The person in charge of a small and medium-sized chain in Jinan, Shandong said: "Many leading chains are vying for the Jinan market, and some of them find companies to talk about mergers and acquisitions

Generally speaking, the head chain will squeeze the living space of the small and medium chain, making the latter have no choice but to withdraw or sell, but some small and medium chains are good enough to "confront" the head chain

In an interview with the media, Chongqing Shanpin Technology Yang Hua also said that there are still many opportunities in emerging tracks such as diversification, big health, specialties, community services, and new retail.

The acquiree needs to protect the right of autonomy

In order to seize more local markets, many small and medium-sized chains are very willing to join the merger and acquisition plan of leading chains

It should be reminded that, before mergers and acquisitions, small and medium-sized chains can consider cooperation in the form of cooperation to reduce the risk of mergers and acquisitions

At the same time, small and medium-sized chains need to figure out two key questions: 1.
Who is the best choice to cooperate with? 2.
Can the effect of 1+1≥2 be achieved after cooperation?

In addition, small and medium-sized chains should also consciously promote the diversification of mergers and acquisitions, and strive for suitable operating space for themselves
.
The person in charge of a small and medium-sized chain in Shandong said frankly: "I do not reject the mergers and acquisitions of large companies, but the targets of mergers and acquisitions are active participants, not the abandoned ones.
The interests and autonomous rights of the targets of mergers and acquisitions need to be guaranteed
