The 2026 pharmacy reforms were financial and industrial changes. But in a pharmacy sale, they quietly become legal ones.

The 8CPA Addendum and the July wage increases change what your historical numbers actually represent, and that flows straight into disclosure, warranties and who carries the risk if something turns out to be wrong.

Stella Samuel, Solicitor at AP Legal, explains what vendors should be reviewing now, well before a purchaser's due diligence request arrives.

Kings Park Pharmacy, Perth | Sold & Settled by Chris Swifte of AP Group! 🎉

Since 2010, Andrew Twaddle and Rebecca Sarsero have built something genuinely respected, working hand in hand with hospitals and allied health practitioners across Perth to deliver medication alongside specialised compounding products and services.

Andrew and Rebecca placed their trust in the Chris to find the right buyer, and it has been a real pleasure working alongside them from start to finish.

That right buyer came in the form of Scott McGregor and Rebecca Godfrey, who now take the reins. There is a strong foundation here to build on, and we have no doubt they will carry it forward well.

Congratulations to all four, and sincere thanks to Andrew and Rebecca for entrusting us with the sale.

In our latest article, AP Group's Aaron Whelan makes the case for treating client feedback as more than a box-ticking exercise: why it matters, how to build a survey program people genuinely respond to, and how to read your results against your industry.

It also shares where AP Group's own FY26 scores landed. Let's just say we're pretty proud of how we've ranked - but there's always more work to do to make our service even better.

Theodore Pharmacy, QLD | Sold & Settled by Tony Hope and Will Brown of AP Group! 🎉

We are pleased to announce that Theodore Pharmacy has been sold and settled, with the business and freehold changing hands together.

Chris entrusted the AP Group team to manage the process, and we are delighted to have found the right buyer in Ahmad, who takes on both the pharmacy and the property. From listing through to settlement, the deal moved quickly, helped by a clear process, strong preparation up front, and trusted advisors on both sides who kept things moving.

Both Chris and Ahmad were a genuine pleasure to deal with, and we would happily work with either of them again.

Congratulations to Chris on the sale and to Ahmad as he steps into this next chapter.
