Store Manager 2002 to 2003
Vandel Drug & Retail Store Torrington, Wyoming
Moved to Torrington, Wyoming in 2002 to buy Vandel Drug Store with a business partner who is a pharmacist. I managed all aspects of the store which did approx. $4 million of business a year. Agreement with current owners was to manage the store for a year or two and then purchase the business with business partner who managed the pharmacy in the store. After a year of working for owners, my partner changed his mind and quit and moved away. I searched for another partner who was a pharmacist but found no one interested in purchasing business with me, as a pharmacist partner would be necessary for the business, so I returned to Gillette, Wyoming to work for Sierra Engineering. I managed all aspects including customer service, running cash registers, hiring and firing employees, inventory purchasing, advertising, community relations, traveled to buyers shows, and all other aspects of retail management.
