Why is Rite Aid closing Ohio locations?

For Rite Aid, the struggle is ongoing. The chain first filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2023, which allowed the company to continue to operate while it handled its outstanding financial woes.

Almost a year later, the 154 stores that it initially planned to shut down have since increased to more than 500 locations.
