Rite Aid Corp. to move HQ to Philadelphia Navy Yard

 Natalie Kostelni Reporter Philadelphia Business Journal

Rite Aid Corp. will relocate its headquarters to the Philadelphia Navy Yard, after having spent decades based in Camp Hill.

The company leased 23,500 square feet at 1200 Intrepid Ave. and will open what it is calling an “enterprise headquarters” as part of an effort to redefine how it envisions its employees working as a result of the pandemic.

Rite Aid is moving to a “remote-first work approach for corporate associates, supported by a network of collaboration centers throughout the company’s geographic footprint,” the company said in a statement. “The reimagined workplace model focuses on flexibility for associates, while also creating an official headquarters space in Philadelphia designed specifically for in-person collaboration and company gatherings, rather than office spaces.”

The company has 2,800 corporate employees and a representative from Rite Aid said the number of people working out of the Philadelphia Navy Yard will fluctuate. The move will take place in the first half of 2022.

"It's a vibrant area and it's an exciting place to be," said Brad Ducey, a company spokesman. "It's central and easy for employees, partners, clients."

Rite Aid is No. 132 on the most recent Fortune 500 list. The company reported revenue last year of $24 billion.
