The latest list includes 27 stores in Michigan and Ohio, according to filings from the retailer’s bankruptcy case. That brings the number of stores put on the chopping block and named in filings this year to 100. Most of those came in February.
Since the drugstore chain filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October, Rite Aid has closed nearly 550 stores, NBC reported, including this latest round.
A Rite Aid spokesperson did not immediately respond to Business Insider’s request for comment on the latest list of proposed closures.
“Rite Aid regularly assesses its retail footprint to ensure we are operating efficiently while meeting the needs of our customers, communities, associates and overall business,” a Rite Aid spokesperson told BI in February about the first round of closures this year. “In connection with the court-supervised process, we notified the Court of certain underperforming stores we are closing to further reduce rent expense and strengthen overall financial performance.”
Rite Aid has been shrinking its base over the past decade. The chain had about 4,600 stores in 2013. It sold about 2,000 of those to rival Walgreens in 2017 after federal regulators blocked Rite Aid’s proposed sale to Walgreens.
The company currently says that it has about 1,600 stores — a fraction of the networks that rivals CVS and Walgreens have built.
