By Sabrina Valle and Dietrich Knauth (Reuters) -Bankrupt Rite Aid on Wednesday received court approval to close stores and sell most of its pharmacy assets in separate transactions to CVS, Walgreens,

A bankruptcy judge on Wednesday approved Rite Aid’s pharmacy asset sales to a variety of buyers. Purchase prices were not disclosed.

Rite Aid first filed for bankruptcy in October 2023. Like many other pharmacies, it fell victim to shifts in consumer habits, with more customers refilling their prescriptions online and skipping the extra purchases made throughout the rest of the drug store.
