The Brooks Pharmacy Kids Tee / T-Shirt brings a piece of regional retail history into a younger fan's everyday wardrobe. Brooks grew from the Adams Drug Company, founded by the Salmanson family in Pawtucket in 1933, and became a familiar pharmacy name across New England and New York. Its locations expanded through acquisitions before Brooks and Eckerd operations were combined. In 2007, the Brooks name gave way as pharmacies were sold to Rite Aid. A meaningful pick for families who enjoy sharing local business history across generations.
Brooks Pharmacy grew from the Adams Drug Company, a family-owned Pawtucket, Rhode Island operation founded by the Salmanson family in 1933. Adams acquired Brooks Drug stores in Vermont and New York. Pantry Pride acquired Adams in 1984, and in 1986 its stores adopted the Brooks name. Hook-SupeRx bought the chain in 1988; Brooks introduced its RxWatch computerized prescription service in 1991. Revco acquired Hook-SupeRx in 1994 and sold 221 New England stores and a Connecticut distribution facility to the Jean Coutu Group. Under Jean Coutu, Brooks expanded through acquisitions, including City Drug in 1999 and 80 Osco Drug stores in 2001. In 2004, Jean Coutu acquired about 1,539 Eckerd pharmacies. Brooks and Eckerd operations were combined, but integration difficulties contributed to declining market share. Rite Aid announced its purchase of Jean Coutu's U.S. division in 2006. On June 4, 2007, Brooks announced the sale of its pharmacies to Rite Aid; the Brooks trade name was retired as locations were rebranded, sold, or closed.
