Kroger has quietly announced plans to close around 60 stores over the next 18 months, but the company is staying tight-lipped about the details.

So far, Kroger hasn’t revealed which stores will be affected or exactly why they’re being closed, but underperforming locations will likely be targeted.

According to Kroger, this move is part of a plan to cut costs and reinvest in growth areas like online shopping, fresh food, pharmacy services, and improving the in-store experience.

With more people shopping online and using curbside pickup, Kroger’s latest move seems like a smart way to cut costs and stay competitive.
