About Us
Anne Hutchings – Managing Director
Anne has specialised in the pharmacy market for over 20 years and is the only pharmacy agent who is a tax expert. This gives Hutchings Consultants an edge over other pharmacy agents who do not have this expertise. Anne says there are three important components to a pharmacy sale:
- Obtaining the best price
- Negotiating the best terms and conditions of sale
- Minimising our clients tax liability
Anne relishes the challenge of negotiating the perfect sale to achieve the maximum results in each of the areas mentioned above.
Other interests – Anne likes to spend time relaxing at her villa in Portugal. She is also a big tennis fan and loves to watch Andy Murray.
Linda Drabwell – Sales Manager
Linda joined the company in 2003 and has been complimented on her friendly, helpful and professional approach. Linda has successfully dealt with many pharmacy sales over the years and oversees the Pharmacy Team to ensure that the best possible service is given to our clients. Linda has also been instrumental in building our success in the Scottish market.
Other interests – Linda likes cars and has recently acquired a classic MX5. She also enjoys socialising and attending concerts.
