HB Pharmacy has seen many changes since 1964. The original pharmacy, HB Drugs, was located at 155 Ridge Road. Gaspar’s son John, a graduate of Rutgers School of Pharmacy, took over leadership of the store in 1992. Guided by the traditions of service and care instilled in him by his father, John Bellitti has shaped HB Pharmacy into what it is today. He expanded the store in the mid-1990’s and forged a new path in 1999 as HB Drugs returned to its pharmacy roots by opening prescription compounding lab. In January 2001, the store moved to 98 Ridge Road, providing a larger facility, expanded compounding laboratory, and a parking lot. It was also at this time that HB Drugs assumed its current name of HB Pharmacy and its subsidiary, HB Apothecary.
In 2016, John's son, Vincent, joined the family business. Vincent, a former management consultant, has a degree in Mechanical Engineering and an MBA. Like many small businesses, the pharmacy had grown and needed more sophisticated management and processes in place in order to operate efficiently. Now that the business has stronger data reporting, a strategic direction, and gross margins far above industry averages, Vincent has taken a back seat to the new operational leader at the pharmacy, James Park. James first started at HB Pharmacy as a pharmacy student on rotation while studying at Rutgers. A staff pharmacist at HB Pharmacy for 12 years, as of 2022 James is also an owner at the pharmacy. Today, James runs operations at the retail and compounding pharmacies while John focuses on provider relationships and Vincent focuses on strategic growth, acquisitions, and other board activities.
Currently, they are looking to acquire other compounding pharmacies to keep building HB Pharmacy, or find other adjacent industries and businesses to begin building a portfolio of small businesses.
