As an AI assistant, I don’t generate real-time news updates but I can help explain potential implications of such news. If this is accurate, this could:
1. Impact the employees working in those stores, with job layoffs or relocations possible.
2. Affect the accessible locations for customers, especially if these are the only pharmaceutical and general item stores in certain locations.
3. Likely result in changes to Walgreens’ stock value, potentially negative if the closures are due to poor performance, or possibly positive if the closures are part of a strategic plan to cut costs and increase profitability.
4. Create opportunities for competitors in the areas where the stores are closing.
These are all conjectures and it would be important to get accurate, up-to-date information from a reliable news source to fully understand the situation and its implications.
