A recent company memo revealed that fewer than 1,000 corporate employees will be laid off as Kroger restructures its operations. Store, manufacturing, and distribution workers will not be affected by the cuts. The company said it plans to redirect resources toward price reductions, store openings, and hiring at the store level. This shift follows a federal judge’s decision to block Kroger’s proposed merger with Albertsons earlier this year.
