Rite Aid has closed its final 89 stores, bringing an end to operations after decades as one of the largest pharmacy chains in the U.S.
“All Rite Aid stores have now closed. We thank our loyal customers for their many years of support,” the company said on its website.
The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October 2023 and shuttered 154 stores. It filed again in May after failing to recover.
The pharmacy chain once operated more than 5,000 stores at its peak and employed about 45,000 people in 2023, including 6,100 pharmacists.
