Rite Aid Expands Store Closures By 68, 2 In New York Will Shut Down
Rite Aid’s going through some tough times—and the list of store closures just keeps growing.
In a new court filing on May 9, the company announced it’s shutting down 68 more locations, including 2 in New York.
This all comes after Rite Aid filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy for the second time on May 5.
Stores Shrinking
Right now, there are still around 1,240 Rite Aid stores open across 15 states, 14 in Central New York. However, that number is getting smaller by the week as the company works through selling off assets and closing up shop.
The good news? If your local store is open, you can still swing by for prescriptions, immunizations, and all the usual pharmacy stuff.
CEO Matt Schroeder says customers will still be able to access Rite Aid services both in stores and online while they go through the process.
