STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Rite Aid, the embattled pharmacy chain that has shuttered more than 500 stores in the past several months, has announced that it will soon close 55 more stores, the bulk of which are located in Ohio and Michigan.
The company, which officially filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October, citing slumping sales and a Justice Department complaint alleging excessive fills of opioids as the cause, has been gradually adding to its list of closures on a month-by-month basis. The location at 2271 Richmond Ave. in the Heartland Village Shopping Center, New Springville, officially closed its doors in May, leaving the borough with just one remaining store. Rite Aid notes that the decision to close a store relates largely to store performance and lease and rent considerations.
