Foodland to permanently close its 7 pharmacies
HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Foodland will be permanently closing all seven of its pharmacy locations by mid-April, the company announced Wednesday.
All prescriptions at Foodland pharmacies will be electronically transferred to Longs Drugs.
“The decision to exit the pharmacy business was not an easy one for us,” said Jenai S. Wall, Foodland chairman and CEO.
“We are grateful that our agreement with Longs Drugs will help ensure our customers’ access to care will be uninterrupted, while also enabling us to better focus our attention on delivering great grocery shopping experiences and meeting the ever-changing food needs of our customers.”
