- Rite Aid Corporation operates as a retail pharmacy chain in the United States, offering prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, health and beauty products, general merchandise, and wellness services including immunizations, medication therapy management, and health screenings; through its Elixir subsidiary, it previously provided pharmacy benefit management services to millions of members nationwide. Founded in 1962 in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the company historically expanded through numerous acquisitions such as Thrifty PayLess, Eckerd, and Brooks Pharmacy, reaching a peak of over 5,000 stores across multiple states including Pennsylvania, California, New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Ohio, and Washington, where it owned the regional chain Bartell Drugs; it primarily serves individual consumers, Medicare and Medicaid participants, and community markets via its store network and formerly through partnerships like GNC stores-within-stores and Amazon pickup counters. In recent years, Rite Aid underwent significant restructuring, filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2023 to address opioid-related lawsuits and debt, emerging as a private company in September 2024 after closing about 38% of stores and selling its Elixir division to MedImpact for approximately $575 million; however, facing renewed liquidity pressures, it filed for a second Chapter 11 bankruptcy in May 2025, selling pharmacy prescription files from over 1,000 locations to competitors including CVS Pharmacy (which acquired files from 626 sites and 63 stores in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington), Walgreens, Albertsons, Kroger, and Giant Eagle, while divesting subsidiaries like Thrifty PayLess and Thrifty Ice Cream to Hilrod Holdings for $19.2 million; by October 2025, Rite Aid completed liquidation of all remaining assets, closed its last 56 stores, and ceased operations entirely.
