Dozens of Walgreens locations are preparing to close in the coming weeks and months after the pharmacy giant announced plans to shutter about 1,200 stores to turn around its struggling U.S. business.
In October, Walgreens said about 500 store closures would happen during the fiscal year, but didn’t explain when the remainder would take place.
As of Tuesday, however, some of its more than 8,000 stores have been marked for impending closure online.
“This location will permanently close on May 22. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause,” a banner on the location page for the Walgreens in East Haven, Connecticut, reads, offering customers information about transferring their prescriptions to another Walgreens.
