Records imply which Rite Aid, Bartells stores CVS bought in Snohomish County and broader area. Also, Bartell Drugs stores that CVS buys will rebrand to CVS

CVS has filed for business licenses to operate multiple Rite Aid and Bartell Drugs locations, including stores in Snohomish, Lake Stevens, and Marysville. The company confirmed it will rebrand the Bartell locations to CVS, aiming to enhance product selection and staffing levels to improve customer experience. CVS spokeswoman Amy Thibault emphasized the importance of maintaining local products that Bartell customers cherish. The acquisition process is not yet complete; CVS expects to finalize transactions by mid- to late summer. Local city and state licensing are crucial steps in this process.

Rite Aid is currently undergoing bankruptcy proceedings, which has led to the closure of several locations and the availability of leases for new operators. CVS's plan to acquire 64 stores across Idaho, Oregon, and Washington was authorized by a U. S. bankruptcy court on May 21. The ongoing changes signal a shift in the retail landscape, particularly in the Pacific Northwest.
