When will my Rite Aid store close? List of pharmacy closure dates amid ongoing prescription transfers
So what happens to your prescriptions? Rite Aid will be transferring them to local third-party pharmacies in your area. Here's where you can find out where Rite Aid pharmacy prescriptions will be transferred to and when most of Rite Aid's remaining pharmacies will be closed.
Why are Rite Aid's pharmacies closing?
Back in May, the struggling Rite Aid pharmacy chain announced that it had filed for bankruptcy and would cease operations. The chain immediately began winding down its business. As Fast Company previously reported, Rite Aid has announced multiple waves of store closures via court documents dating back to early May.
As of June 30, Rite Aid had announced the closures of more than 1,000 locations, nearing the 1,277 number of locations the company said it operated when it originally filed for bankruptcy.
While some Rite Aid locations have been acquired by competitors, such as 64 by CVS, most Rite Aid locations will be shuttering for good by the time the company's bankruptcy proceedings wind down later this year.
Which Rite Aid pharmacies are still open?
Rite Aid has already closed a majority of its stores and pharmacies. According to the company's pharmacy closure list, hundreds of pharmacies have already closed for good. The first pharmacies on the list began shutting their doors on June 2, 2025.
But as of today's date (July 28, 2025), the list still shows that more than 150 locations are still open (though over a dozen are expected to permanently shut today).
The last store on the list, the Rite Aid Pharmacy at 5627-99 Chestnut Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is listed to be closed on Friday, August 8.
However, it should be noted that this list is apparently just referencing the actual pharmacies that are operating in the closing store locations. The non-pharmacy parts of the Rite Aid locations may remain open for longer.
Fast Company reached out to Rite Aid for more information on when final store closures are expected. We will update this post if we hear back.
Where do I pick up my Rite Aid pharmacy prescriptions now?
If you have regular recurring prescriptions at a soon-to-close Rite Aid pharmacy, Rite Aid says that it has taken steps to have your prescriptions automatically transferred to a third-party pharmacy in your area.
To find out where your prescriptions have been or will be transferred to, you can use Rite Aid's Pharmacy Closure and Transfer List.
To use the tool, enter the zip code of the Rite Aid pharmacy that previously held your prescriptions. The list will then filter to reveal Rite Aid locations in that zip code. Look for the location that matches your Rite Aid pharmacy's address.
After its address, you'll see a column that says 'Last Day of Pharmacy Business.' The date in that column tells you when that Rite Aid pharmacy is closing. The columns after that date will show you the 'New Pharmacy Name' of where your prescriptions are being transferred to (a local Walgreens, for example) and the new pharmacy's address and phone number.
It may be a good idea to call ahead to the new pharmacy to confirm that they have received your prescription transfer before visiting. You may also be able to work with your new pharmacy and/or doctor's office to have your prescriptions sent to a different pharmacy of your choosing.

Why Dispo's co-founder made the leap from social media to steelmaking
Daniel Liss, co-founder of the social network Dispo and the dating app Teaser AI, is convinced he's onto the next big thing: steelmaking. It all started, incongruously, with a few op-eds he wrote for TechCrunch about anti-trust enforcement in social media. The commentaries apparently caught the attention of some folks in Washington D.C., Liss told TechCrunch, and resulted in him being invited to guest judge a war game capstone exercise in spring 2023 hosted by the National War College. The war game was very au courant, running a scenario in which the U.S. and China fought for supremacy over Taiwan and the South China Sea. Liss's take away from the exercise? 'Our core supply chain of the arsenal of democracy — literally, the ships that my grandfather fought in — we don't have the ship-building capacity. If we did, we don't have the steel to make it,' he said. At that point, Liss said he became 'really interested — obsessed, even' with the steel supply chain. 'That was really the birth of Nemo Industries.' The basic pitch for Nemo Industries, Liss's latest startup, appears as though it were drawn from a Venn diagram of two very American anxieties, steelmaking and AI. The company, until now, has been operating in stealth, but Liss gave TechCrunch a peek behind the scenes. First, the obvious part: Nemo will use AI to optimize the production of pig iron, modernizing an industry that Liss said is woefully outdated. 'These plants are run on, at best, Excel spreadsheets. At worst, clipboard technology,' he said. The people who run them have 'unbelievable expertise,' he added, but that's the sort of thing that doesn't scale well. But Liss isn't pitching Nemo as just another piece of industrial software. Rather, Nemo is planning to build its own furnaces. The decision was driven by Liss's conviction that companies which use AI from inception will have a '20% to 30% margin advantage' over competitors. In steelmaking, such conviction doesn't come cheap. Hyundai Motor Group said in March that it would build a $6 billion steel plant in Louisiana to supply its factories in the U.S. Nemo's plant may not cost that much since its operations will be focused on pig iron, an intermediate product which steelmakers use to make a range of different alloys. Nemo will fire its furnaces using natural gas, which releases less carbon dioxide than coal, which is commonly used in the iron and steel industry. Liss said the company is considering capturing the furnaces' carbon pollution; tax incentives introduced under the Inflation Reduction Act remain largely intact, and they make the endeavor profitable for Nemo, he said. Liss's partner in Nemo is Michael DuBose, an investor who previously worked at Cheniere Energy, a natural gas company. 'He's built billions of dollars in LNG infrastructure,' Liss said. The startup will need that sort of scale if it's to succeed. Nemo previously raised $28.2 million, according to PitchBook, and it is currently in talks with existing investors to raise a $100 million Series A with existing investors, a person familiar with the matter told TechCrunch. The company also has received offers for over $1 billion in incentives from two southern states if the company can build three plants over the course of 15 years, the person said. It's a tall order for anyone to tackle, but Liss said that sort of ambition is required if the steel industry is going to deliver the sort of returns desired by venture capitalists. And, he added, basic industries like steel have historically delivered big wins for investors. 'When you look at the history of our country, many of the greatest companies that created outsize outcomes for their initial investors were in these categories,' Liss said. 'Ultimately, what were the Rockefellers and the Carnegies and the Melons and the Fricks investing in? The dollar amounts are so big in these categories.'

EU vowed $600B US economy investment from Trump trade deal. Hours later, European bloc admitted it can't back that promise
Less than a day after President Donald Trump claimed that the European Union had agreed to invest $600 billion into the United States as part of a trade deal that will see Trump ask Americans to shoulder a 15 percent import tax on many European goods, EU officials are quietly backtracking. The deal to avert a full-on trade war between the U.S. and one of its major trading partners came into shape over the weekend as Trump met with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen at his Turnberry golf resort in Scotland. Trump had threatened to impose a 30 percent tax on EU imports in a letter to von der Leyen earlier this month. But he told reporters traveling with him on his extended-weekend golf holiday that he and von de Leyen had agreed that the U.S. would impose 'a straight-across tariff of 15 percent' for 'automobiles and everything else' imported into the U.S. from the bloc. Trump also said the EU had agreed to open its own markets by not raising any retaliatory taxes on American goods. Though tariffs are designed to promote domestic production and purchasing by taxing imported goods, the increase in cost typically falls on consumers, not foreign governments. This is because retailers often sidestep the increased import costs by raising prices. Still, the president's public statements have indicated that he sincerely believes that tariffs are paid by foreign nations as a sort of tribute for the purpose of accessing American markets. In fact, they are paid by American importers and passed on to consumers in the form of higher prices. The European Commission president called the agreement a 'huge deal' that would 'bring stability' and 'bring predictability,' calling both benefits 'very important for our businesses on both sides of the Atlantic.' The president also claimed that the agreement would bring $600 billion into American coffers by way of investments made by the EU into U.S. companies. But on Monday, multiple EU officials walked back the massive outlay by noting that it would be made by a variety of private companies over which the bloc has no authority when it comes to corporate spending priorities. One such official told Politico that none of the funds touted by Trump would be from the public coffers of any EU nation. 'It is not something that the EU as a public authority can guarantee. It is something which is based on the intentions of the private companies,' the official said. Another official stated that the $600 billion figure had been calculated "based on detailed discussions with different business associations and companies in order to see what their investment intentions are,' but as of Monday the European Commission has not announced any plans to use any sort of incentives to encourage the investment at issue.
