Why Are Cvs And Walgreens Always Together? (Solved)
CVS, Walgreens and Walgreens are the most well-known drugstore chains in America. They have thousands of pharmacies all around the country.
Does CVS have the Same Owners as Walgreens
CVS is not Walgreens’s owner. CVS Health owns CVS whereas Walgreens comes under the holding company Walgreens Boots Alliance.
Which Chain Started First?
Walgreens was established 120 years ago in Chicago (Illinois), U.S. CVS, on the other hand, was started in 1963 in Lowell (Massachusetts), U.S.
Therefore, we can see that Walgreens started first (a lot earlier than CVS).
Which is more profitable, CVS or Walgreens?
CVS’s 3rd quarter net income was $1.5 billion, while Walgreens’ net earnings were $677 million in the fourth quarter.
This clearly illustrates that CVS is much more profitable than either of its competitors.
What Chain has More Total Stores?
Walgreens owns close to 18.750 retail stores around the world and has 9,200+ locations in the United States alone. CVS has 9900 stores across the U.S.
Which chain fills more prescriptions?
CVS filled over 352,000,000 prescriptions in its third quarter 2019. Walgreens only filled 283 million of those prescriptions.

Conclusion: CVS and Walgreens are always together
CVS and Walgreens are always located together because of Hotelling’s law, which says businesses selling similar products cluster together to maximize their market share. Locating together also helps each benefit from the other store’s advertising since customers would inevitably visit the same location.
