Rite Aid Confirms All Stores Closed Nationwide After Bankruptcy Wind-Down

The shutdown follows a second Chapter 11 that liquidated assets, shifting prescriptions to rival chains.

The Rite Aid pharmacy at the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Cedar Street in the Town of Southport is among several Elmira area Rite Aid locations that will close this summer when the company goes out of business.

Overview

  • A message on Rite Aid’s homepage states, “All Rite Aid stores have now closed,” confirming the nationwide shutdown.
  • The final locations closed on Sept. 29 in Bainbridge Island, Washington, and Bend, Oregon.
  • The company’s website now offers a pharmacy locator and links to request prescription and immunization records.
  • As part of court-approved sales, prescriptions and assets moved to CVS, Walgreens, Albertsons, Kroger and Giant Eagle; CVS bought 64 stores and 625 prescription files.
  • Rite Aid’s footprint fell from 2,451 stores in early 2022 to 89 by Sept. 2, 2025, following years of heavy debt, declining revenue and opioid-litigation costs.
