Richard Gorman has been a pleasure to work with. Communication and confidentiality were key and Richard was able to quickly identify a match for the pharmacy to the desired outcomes. His team are very helpful, worked to an efficient timeline and kept everything on track for a seamless handover. I would absolutely engage Richard again.

Some 18 months ago I reached a decision it was time to sell my pharmacy and retire. As a long-term guild member I sought advice from the guild for assistance. They referred me straight to CFS Sales & Consulting as their preferred operator. My first contact with Partner Michael Clark was very positive as he took me through the steps involved relating to a sale. I had identified a potential buyer whom I thought would be great for our town and our customers. Michael then liaised with this person explaining he or she needed to make a realistic offer as this pharmacy was a very good business. He then explained to me what I needed to provide as information being sales figures, stock value etc. I am pleased to say with Michael’s ongoing guidance contracts were exchanged on 30th June 2022. I should also mention I believe their commission rate to be very competitive particularly if you are a guild member.

The Calanna group have been clients of Richard and Corporate Financial for close to 3 decades looking after arrangements for asset finance through to assisting purchase and acquisition of stores. The relationship has always been open, frank and respectful. Due to the close financial and working relationship between the Calanna group and CFS it made sense for CFS to assist in various aspects of the sale of the Calanna group of businesses which was finalised in August of 2022. The transaction significant and complex for both parties but Richard, Michael and the team were helped navigate the transaction successfully and respectfully.

Richard Gorman and the team at CFS Sales & Consulting proved to be a broker I could trust to sell my pharmacies. The CFS team took time to understand both my business and my particular needs which in turn allowed us to find the right buyer. Their top-class professionalism and expert knowledge meant that they delivered an outstanding result. I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Richard and his team recently sold two of my businesses in Mildura with an excellent result all round. Throughout the process I felt comfortable that Richard was looking after my interests, and he managed a smooth transition to the new owners, in what most people describe as a very anxious time. What I liked most about the sales process was Richard’s ability to eliminate the tyre kickers, leaving only genuine buyers, all without broadcasting my figures to everyone throughout the industry. Consequently, Richard will be the only person I will be contacting when I come to selling my remaining business.
