A CVS store in Columbia Heights announced the store’s closure in February due to shoplifting. Customers’ prescriptions will be transferred to a nearby location.
“Maintaining access to pharmacy services in the communities we serve is an important factor we consider when making store closure decisions,” said a CVS spokeswoman in a statement. “Other factors include local market dynamics, population shifts, a community’s store density, and ensuring there are other geographic access points to meet the needs of the community.”
