Revco

But in 1994, the company would change hands again.

In April of that year, Revco announced it was buying Hook Super X for approximately $600 million.

The purchase would nearly double Revco's size.

It would become the second largest drugstore chain in the country.

The deal was completed in July.

But Revco wasn't keeping everything it had purchased.

The company announced plans to sell 272 stores.

Another 50 were slated for closure.
