Jhoots Pharmacy has long been known as the leading independent, community pharmacy chain within the Midlands. Jhoots have done this through offering an efficient and reliable service for all of their patients and customers. 

Manjit Jhooty (CEO of Jhoots Pharmacy) has prided himself in ensuring that everyone is given the time and attention they deserve by ensuring Jhoots Pharmacy tailor their services to meet everyone’s individual needs. 

In order to continue to help Jhoots Pharmacy in their expansion they have taken support from HSBC UK Bank Plc (“HSBC”) who have had a good relationship with the pharmacy chain and have continued to support them over the years. Thus, it was a natural step for HSBC to continue to provide support for Jhoots Pharmacy and as part of their reorganisation in order to allow the pharmacy to continue to offer its full range of Essential, Advanced and Enhanced NHS Services.

Manjit said “it goes without saying HSBC have the skill set and experience to deal with pharmaceutical sector but what makes the bank different is the personal approach and the genuine interest they have in their customers which reflects how I look at my customers within my business.”

Partho Bose (Senior Business Development Manager at HSBC) said “working with Manjit has always been a pleasure because he is focused in his goals which means things have to be done at a pace in order to allow him to move onto other things.”

In order to deliver the deal, HSBC used Hawkins Hatton Corporate Lawyers who are a panel firm for the bank. Manjit specifically wanted HSBC to use Hawkins Hatton as he knew their skill and reputation for delivering a deal on time. Colin Rodrigues (Corporate Partner at Hawkins Hatton) said “having done a pervious deal for the bank for Manjit, I do know that there is no room slippage when starting a transaction. In this particular transaction, not only there was a lot to do but the time frame was very tight thus, we had to work as cohesive team to deliver the deal for the bank and Manjit.”
