PROFILE |
 |
Looking to regain its clout, Avatex is hoping to get "phar mor" from its investments than just profits. Once known as the powerful National Steel, the holding company has slumped through a string of disastrous diversification moves since the 1980s. Its highlight now is a nearly 40% stake in drugstore chain Phar-Mor, which has around 140 stores in about 25 states operating under such names as Phar-Mor, Pharmhouse, and Rx Place. Avatex also owns small stakes in companies involved in cosmetics, chemicals, and medical and surgical supplies. Phar-Mor, which owns more than 20% of Avatex and shares some of its executives, has stakes in some of the same companies.
