Fifteen Columbus-area stores will be part of a national effort by drugstore chain CVS to double its grocery sections by year’s end.
The local stores will be among 125 in Ohio and 3,000 nationally to increase nonperishable food offerings, said Erin Pensa, senior public relations manager for CVS.
“CVS is increasing these offerings so customers can save time and grab last-minute items when picking up their prescriptions and everyday essentials,” Pensa said.
Items include CVS’ Gold Emblem line of snacks and popular national-brand staples, Pensa said.
