🛒 Kroger to Close 60 Stores Amid Strategic Shift Post-Merger Collapse

Kroger has announced it will close approximately 60 stores across the U.S. over the next 18 months, following the collapse of its $24.6 billion proposed merger with Albertsons. The closures, affecting "ones and twos by division" nationwide, are part of a long-deferred streamlining effort. The company took a $100 million impairment charge related to these shutdowns.

🔹 All affected employees will be offered roles at other nearby locations.
🔹 No specific store locations have been disclosed yet.

While trimming underperforming stores, Kroger plans to open more than 30 new stores in 2026, favoring high-growth regions and popular formats like its Marketplace stores. One such expansion includes a 123,000-square-foot King Soopers superstore in Aurora, Colorado.

The closure decision follows a federal judge's December ruling blocking the Kroger-Albertsons merger on antitrust grounds — a deal that would’ve united two of the nation’s largest grocery chains.

Kroger is currently led by Interim CEO Ron Sargent and is still searching for a permanent replacement for former CEO Rodney McMullen.

The US Census Bureau released population growth estimates for 2024, with Texas, Florida, and California leading the way. While Texas and California saw strong natural population growth, their sources of growth differed significantly.
Key findings:

Texas added the most new residents, driven by domestic migration, international migration, and natural change.
California's population grew by over 230,000, primarily due to international migration, which reached its highest level in five years.
Florida's population growth was driven by domestic migration, with retirees moving from high-cost northern states.
Challenges:

California's high housing costs continue to drive residents away, with 1.5 million leaving the state over the past five years.
Until California addresses its housing undersupply, it may struggle to retain residents.
Trends:

International migration surpassed domestic migration in eight of the top 10 states for population growth.
The US fertility rate continues to decline, making international migration a crucial component of population growth.
