PROFILE |
 |
Tops on Kroger's shopping list is buying supermarkets -- a good idea, since less than 15% of sales comes from its namesake stores. But thanks to acquisitions, The Kroger Co. is the #1 US grocer, with more than 3,500 stores coast-to-coast under some two dozen banners (including about 2,350 supermarkets). Its Dillon Companies subsidiary operates more than 200 grocery stores under different flags, and it also runs about 800 convenience stores under names such as Quik Stop and Kwik Shop. Kroger's Fred Meyer subsidiary, located in the western US, operates such chains as Ralphs, Smith's Food & Drug Centers, Food 4 Less, and about 400 jewelry stores. Kroger is expanding by buying regional operators.
