Navarro Inks Leases in Dade, Broward

MIAMI-The largest Hispanic-owned drugstore chain in the U.S. just got larger. Navarro Discount Pharmacy signed two new store leases, one in Homestead and one in Pembroke Pines. That brings the chain up to 28 stores, with three new stores under construction that are set to open in the next three to nine months.

Paul DiBrito, Navarro’s director of Real Estate and Construction, says the drugstore chain plans to add as many as 21 new store locations in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties over the next three years. Each new store will add between 50 and 70 jobs. The company will also remodel up to five existing stores each year.
