Why is CVS closing pharmacy locations in 2025?

The CVS 2024 annual report said CVS decided to close pharmacy locations in 2025 as part of its “enterprise-wide restructuring plan intended to streamline and simplify the organization.”

A spokesperson confirmed to Newsweek that the pharmacy closures would be a way to optimize “existing stores and pharmacies.” They added that the recent closures were based on shifting consumer trends and not industry pressures.
