US pharmacy chain Rite Aid announced that it would close all remaining stores.
The company's website was replaced on Saturday with a message announcing the closure: "All Rite Aid stores have now closed. We thank our loyal customers for their many years of support." The site included a link to allow customers to request their pharmacy records.
Founded in 1962, the company was once one of the largest pharmacy chains in the country. At its peak, Rite Aid counted 5,000 stores.
But in recent years, the chain faced financial struggles and a Justice Department investigation. By Friday, data showed fewer than 100 stores remained.
Rite Aid had filed for bankruptcy in October 2023 and May 2025.
