D L Ogle has been owned by David Ogle and his family for more than 30 years and was brought to market last year to enable family members to either retire or pursue different business interests, said Christie & Co.
Carl Steer, director - pharmacy at Christie & Co, said: "The sale was confidentially marketed but, within just a few days, interest was achieved from multiple parties, and we were able to present our client with an acceptable offer - this was a truly remarkable achievement but one that the long-standing business deserved.
"The buyers own two sizeable pharmacies in the East Midlands and now add this well-performing profitable pharmacy to their portfolio. It was a pleasure to deal with everyone on the deal."
