CVS Health has confirmed plans to close 270 shops across the United States in 2025. This marks the final stage of a broader initiative to shut down 900 locations over a three-year period. The move is part of the company's strategy to modernise services and meet the growing demand for digital and streamlined healthcare delivery.
According to CVS,the closures will primarily affect areas with multiple shops or those experiencing a decline in footfall. While the company maintains that 85% of Americans will still live within 10 miles of a CVS pharmacy, the closures raise concerns about access, particularly in rural and low-income communities.
