Rite Aid Closing 200 More Stores Nationwide, 21 in New York

The wave of Rite Aid closures isn’t over yet. The national pharmacy chain has announced it will shutter another 200 locations across the country — and 21 of them are right here in New York.

This latest round of closures is part of the company’s ongoing bankruptcy restructuring plan as it struggles under billions in debt and mounting legal challenges.

Stores have already been disappearing across the state, and with this new batch, entire communities could be left without a convenient local pharmacy.

Rite Aid has said it plans to transfer prescriptions to nearby pharmacies where possible — but for some New Yorkers, “nearby” might not mean close at all.
