From Business Insider:
“Rite Aid is planning to close about 150 locations. See if
your local store is on the list.”
Rite Aid is slated to shutter 154 stores as part of its
Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The drugstore chain identified the underperforming locations
in a court filing Monday. The closing stores are spread throughout the US but
concentrated in California as well as Northeastern states including New York
and Pennsylvania. Rite Aid was expected to close stores as part of its
bankruptcy. In September, the Wall Street Journal reported that the chain could
shutter up to 500 stores.
Rite Aid told Insider that it considers a variety of factors
when deciding to close a store, "including business strategy, lease and
rent considerations, local business conditions and viability, and store
performance." Rite Aid said it would transfer patients' prescriptions to
other pharmacies "so there is no disruption of services." "We
will also strive to transfer associates to other Rite Aid locations where
possible," the company said.
The closures would mark the latest decrease in store count
for Rite Aid. In 2013, the chain operated about 4,600 stores in the US. But in
2017, rival pharmacy chain Walgreens bought just under 2,000 of the company's
locations for $4.38 billion. Walgreens had previously planned to buy Rite Aid
in its entirety, but US regulators blocked the deal. Today, Rite Aid has about
2,100 stores. Rival CVS, meanwhile, has almost 10,000 stores in the US.
Walgreens has 9,000 locations.

^ It’s sad to see so many stores closing knowing that people
will have to struggle to find new Pharmacies. ^
