NORTH TONAWANDA, N.Y. — CVS has announced that they will be closing their Payne Avenue location in North Tonawanda permanently on April 11.
All those with prescriptions at the closing location will be moved to the CVS nearby on Sheridan Drive in Tonawanda. Customers can choose to fill their prescriptions at any location of their choice on a regular basis.
A CVS representative told 2 On Your Side in a statement:
" Maintaining access to pharmacy services in the communities we serve is an important factor we consider when making store closure decisions. 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. We’ll continue to provide area residents with outstanding service at our Tonawanda store. We also offer prescription home delivery service to eligible patients through CVS.com and the CVS Pharmacy app to provide additional convenient access to medications."
Employees at the Tonawanda location are being offered comparable roles within the company.
