Bricks and mortar
Organic growth – where we build stores to
our specifications on sites we identify – is our
preferred method of expansion. In 2007,
we had a net gain of 536 new stores, bringing
our fiscal year-end total to 5,997 stores in
48 states and Puerto Rico.

Walgreens convenient drugstores are the hub of
our business.When customers need an emergency
prescription or a soft drink, they flock to stores
like this one (left) at the Empire State Building
in New York City. We’re accelerating expansion
in dense Northeastern cities, which includes
opening a store next summer in Manhattan’s
Times Square.
