TRailBlazers Terry White and Rhonda White (pictured), whose remarkable journey has left an indelible mark on the industry, are selling their remaining business. After a remarkable career spanning over six decades in community pharmacy ownership, their enduring legacy is tonight being celebrated at an industry event hosted by EBOS Group at the Emporium Hotel in South Brisbane. It all started in 1958 when Terry took the first step by acquiring his initial pharmacy in Woody Point on the Redcliffe Peninsula. Shortly after their marriage in 1961, Rhonda opened her first pharmacy in Clontarf, igniting what some might have called friendly competition. In 1994, they established the franchise company Terry White Chemists, a visionary endeavour that reshaped the landscape of community pharmacy in Australia. The journey of growth for the pair saw the Terry White Chemists business merge with Chemmart in 2016, creating one of Australia’s largest pharmacy brands. In 2018, the group was acquired by EBOS, and today the TerryWhite Chemmart brand has a network of over 550 pharmacies nationwide. Terry reminisced that the “TerryWhite Chemmart journey has always been about more than just running pharmacies”. “It’s been about pioneering new ideas and embracing change to better serve communities across Australia,” Terry commented. “Our legacy is a testament to the power of innovation and compassion in healthcare.” Rhonda said that at the “heart of our success has always been our belief in people, our customers, staff, and partners”. “We’ve strived to make a difference in their lives and empower them to take charge of their health, their careers and their businesses,” Rhonda added. “The legacy that Terry and I have built will live on through those we’ve been lucky to have met and to have been inspired by.” EBOS Group CEO John Cullity said, “EBOS Group is honoured to celebrate the remarkable journey of Terry and Rhonda White, and their retirement marks the end of an era, but their enduring legacy will forever inspire us all”.
