Rite Aid to close dozens of stores: Here's what it means for your prescriptions
Although the company will soon start the process of auctioning off most of its locations, it is prioritising “uninterrupted” services to its customers.
The company currently operates 1,240 pharmacies across 15 states. However, the company announced on Monday that it is undergoing a procedure to scale back its operations as part of its Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings.
“As we move forward, our key priorities are ensuring uninterrupted pharmacy services for our customers and preserving jobs for as many associates as possible,” Rite Aid CEO Matt Schroeder said in a statement, per the outlet.
Despite the store closings, customers will be able to access Rite Aid pharmacy services. According to its bankruptcy protection filing, the company has acquired $1.94 billion in new financing to keep stores operational as it looks for potential buyers.
Rite Aid confirmed in a news release that it is currently “working to facilitate a smooth transfer of customer prescriptions to other pharmacies.”
“During this process, Rite Aid customers can continue to access pharmacy services and products in stores and online, including prescriptions and immunizations,” the drugstore chain added.
The recent Chapter 11 filing marks the second time the company has declared bankruptcy in less than two years after a previous restructuring in order to reduce its debt. In his statement, Schroeder cited financial issues “intensified by the rapidly evolving retail and healthcare landscapes.”
