This Massive Retailer in California Now Closes Several Stores

December 6, 2023

A massive retailer in California now closes several additional stores after declaring Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October.

Rite Aid has added new store closures to its roster bringing the total number of locations shuttering in the Golden State to 41.

In October, as part of their bankruptcy filing, Rite Aid announced that 154 locations nationwide would close, including thirty-one in California.

However, the number of store closures has now risen.

Rite Aid was founded in 1965 but has struggled recently.

The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after incurring a whopping $3.3 billion in unpaid debt.

According to financial reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Rite Aid has lost approximately $3 billion since 2020.

“Rite Aid has served customers and communities across our country for more than 60 years, and the important actions we are taking today will enable us to move ahead as a stronger company,” says Jeffrey Stein, Chief Executive Office and Chief Restructuring Officer of Rite Aid.

“With the support of our lenders, we look forward to strengthening our financial foundation, advancing our transformation initiatives, and accelerating the execution of our turnaround strategy.

In doing so, we will be even better able to deliver the healthcare products and services our customers and their families rely on – now and into the future.”

So far, the total number of Rite Aid store closures has passed 230, including forty-one in California.

DeSantis has now announced new massive layoffs in Florida, part of a budget plan that will last between 2024 and 2025.

Despite a multi-billion-dollar budget surplus, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has vowed to cut more than 1,000 state government positions.

The Governor released the following statement:

“We are also going to be reducing the size of government by eliminating over 1,000 positions throughout the state government.

That’s going to help us realign resources to focus on efficiency.”

According to the plan, there would be 407 jobs axed from the Florida Department of Corrections (FDC).

The Florida Department of Health (FDOH) would also lose approximately 358 positions.

And the Florida Department of Transportation would lose at the very least 100 jobs.

The budget was slammed by Florida Democrats.

“The irony of Ron’s ‘Focus on Florida’ budget is his complete inability to actually focus on Florida,” says Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried.

“He spent more time ranting about the State of California today than proposing positive solutions for Florida — at times, his speech felt like the deleted scenes from last week’s debate.”

The budget will be negotiated during the 2024 legislative session, which will start on Tuesday, January 9, 2024.

Once and if approved, it will take effect sometime in starting in July.
