Starting this summer, CVS will replace 25 percent of its front checkout space, traditionally occupied by candy, with displays of snacks including KIND bars, Larabars, and Vega One bars.
The change is part of CVS' push to expand its assortment of healthy food and beverages, building on an initial 500-store pilot that launched in 2015. This year's push will extend to more than 2,900 stores nationwide and is part of the company's efforts to evolve into a health destination by making better health easier for customers.
