SHENANDOAH – The bankrupt pharmacy chain Rite Aid filed notice Friday of their intent to close the Shenandoah and Frackville locations.
The notice comes as store closing sales are well underway at the Mahanoy City location.
Rite Aid is in the midst of their second bankruptcy and all stores will be sold or closed.
Friday’s notice filed in bankruptcy court provides ten days for objections to be filed and does not list a specific closure date for the locations.
The notice lists 151 locations set to be closed, including the downtown Shenandoah location and the Frackville location.
Rite Aid is the only major pharmacy chain in northern Schuylkill County. The only other pharmacies in this part of the county are Morris Drug, Mahanoy City; and Redner’s Pharmacy, Turkey Run. CVS has locations in Mount Carmel, Hazleton, and Pottsville, and Walmart offers pharmacy services as well.
The Shenandoah Rite Aid location was the last new commercial building built downtown until construction began on the Center for Education, Business, and the Arts last year. It filled a void left by a major fire in the 1990’s that wiped out most of the unit block of South Main Street.
With the closures, Ashland’s Rite Aid — which took on the prescriptions from the closed independent Bracey Pharmacy a few years ago — will be the last standing in northern Schuylkill County.
