Longs Drugs has announced that we will opening their very first Waikiki location at the Bank of Hawaii Waikiki Center, where the former Teddy Bear World store was located. The tentative plan is complete the two-story, 20,000 sq ft location by the end of 2015. Waikiki currently has only two pharmacies, though there are many ABC Stores and Lawson convenience stores that sell over-the-counter medications. Rick Egged, the president of the Waikiki Improvement Association, commented, "We think it's a great idea. I've actually wanted one in Waikiki for a long time. It's a great addition to Waikiki because it'll provide services that will be much in demand, both from the standpoint of our visitors and even our residents and people who work in Waikiki."
