MySaline initially reported around lunch time Friday, December 1, 2023 that Finley Pharmacy, a family operation that has been in business since 2012, sold to another company.
The first question on everyone’s mind is whether the pharmacy is closing. Owner and Pharmacist Tim Finley said it will stay open, and might even keep the Finley name. The new owner is Percy Malone of Allcare Correctional Pharmacy. This acquisition will make 20 locations for the business.

Malone is a Pharmacist and a businessman, as well as a former Arkansas State Senator from Arkadelphia. Finley said Malone has plans for improvements to make things easier as customers come to pick up their meds and other items. They plan to improve the compounding process as well.
After 30 years of being a pharmacist, then owning this business for more than ten years, Finley said it’s time to retire. He and wife Sharon being gone will be the biggest change that customers will immediately see. But Tim said there is another welcome change. He has recently had to turn away some customers with Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance, but said the new owner will be able to take it.
Finley said he will still be around in the store for a couple of weeks and you can drop in a say goodbye. You can also meet the new pharmacist, Vance Parker. The rest of the crew will remain the same. Find them at 1016 W South St, Suite 1, Benton, AR 72015.
