10 local Rite Aid pharmacy locations are scheduled to close or already have closed following the company's Chapter 11 filing.
According to court documents filed earlier this week, nine underperforming stores will close. They are in:
Baldwin – Keeport Drive
Bethel Park – Library Road
Export – William Penn Highway
Greensburg – Route 30
New Kensington – Stevenson Boulevard
Moon Township – University Boulevard
New Castle – Wilmington Road
Pittsburgh - at the intersection of 88 and 51 on Saw Mill Run Boulevard
Rochester – Brighton Road
The Rite Aid at the Crafton-Ingram shopping center is also closed
Nearly 40 across PA are on the chopping block and over 150 will close nationwide.
Rite Aid says it will transfer patients' prescriptions to other pharmacies.
The chain has filed for bankruptcy due to declining sales, increasing debt and mounting lawsuits following the opioid epidemic.
Rite Aid is the third-largest drugstore in the country, behind Walgreens and CVS.
