Walgreens, a privately owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 1901 and employs approximately 78,180 individuals. The company operates as the second-largest pharmacy store chain in the United States, specializing in retail pharmacies, filling prescriptions, offering health and wellness products, providing health information, and delivering photo services.
Walgreens, alongside CVS, will alter its service offerings in Vermont following the passage of a new law on July 8, 2026. The legislation permits pharmacists in the state to expand direct patient care by testing and treating common conditions, such as the flu and strep throat, impacting 600,000 Americans. Previously, on July 7, 2026, New York City authorities announced settlements with Walgreens, Allstar Security & Consulting, Calzedonia (owner of Intimissimi), and Kinship Coffee over violations of the city's worker-protection laws. This action was part of the Mamdani administration's labor enforcement efforts, which secured more than $2.3 million in restitution for over 1,600 workers across four employers accused of violating New York City's worker protection laws.
