Goodbye Rite Aid: Popular pharmacy and store closes all of its doors for good

The closures follow a second Chapter 11 bankruptcy that was filed in May of this year. Back then, Rite Aid CEO Matthew Schroeder said the company was “actively seeking capital,” but its efforts had been unsuccessful.

Additionally, Schroeder cited a dramatic downturn in the economy, with increased costs for the bankruptcy.

Shortly after the bankruptcy, Rite Aid, which once operated more than 2,000 stores throughout the United States, closed down nearly 800 of them. Now, they’re all gone.

“All Rite Aid stores have now closed,” the company said in a statement on its website. “We thank our loyal customers for their many years of support.”

Rite Aid’s website has been wiped clean except for options to request immunization records and find a new pharmacy.
