Evaluate the site
Review zoning, permitted use, parking, accessibility, neighboring services, security, visibility, delivery access, and whether the space can support the intended pharmacy services.
Coordinate the lease
Pharmacy leases should be reviewed with qualified counsel and aligned with buildout, licensing contingencies, possession dates, signage, utilities, and opening timelines.
Plan the pharmacy layout
Design workflow around prescription intake, filling, verification, counseling, controlled-substance security, storage, refrigeration, immunization or clinical services, staff space, and patient privacy.
