Re: C&S new stores in the PNW
Idaho is one area where I would expect them to keep the Albertsons name, given that's where the chain started, and the fact they have an existing store base. I could see Albertsons and Fred Meyer co-existing in markets such as Boise. Safeway has faded away already in the southern part of Idaho, but...

Re: LOI signed for new Albertsons in Ardmore, OK
Now that we see the Kroger gets the Albertsons name everywhere except CA, AZ, CO &WY, do you think this will open as an Albertsons before the merger is done? Or will it open as a Kroger?

Re: Westfield San Francisco Centre
The mall has been stripped of the Westfield name. There are huge areas of abandoned stores. The Nordstrom is empty and the Emporium Dome area is deserted. This mall is a dead mall now. It was totally different even back in 2019. Back then business was booming and tech workers and tourists packed th...

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?
They have explicitly stated: #1 - no spin offs, Spinco, etc. They're now a no-spin zone period. #2 - C&S has the first right to buy all of the remaining 231 stores that may or may not be sold. So, unless C&S doesn't take the 2nd wave of stores nobody else will be joining this deal. Furtherm...

C&S new stores in the PNW
So, if the FTC does let the Kroger Albertsons merger go through, there will be 180 stores in WA, OR, ID, AK in need of a new banner. Plus a small handful in UT & MT. C&S will own the rights to the QFC name plus the vast majority of the actual stores. Compared to the time before Kroger bought...

Re: Kroger to sell 10 Harris Teeter stores in D.C., Virginia and Maryland to Piggly Wiggly owner
I’m wondering if Mariano’s would be used? Yes, it’s from the Chicago area but it is a similar concept.

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?
There is another nice flagship QFC where there is a small possibility that they would keep it and that would be Downtown Bellevue. It’s a super nice store across from Bellevue Square. But while I’m sure they get great sales, there is a super nice Safeway nearby. Also, Kroger might throw a bone to C&...

Re: Rite Aid closing at least 63 stores
Also the Des Moines, WA Bartell is closing! Ironically, it’s just blocks from the new warehouse and regional headquarters for Rite Aid and the Headquarters for Bartell itself!

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?
Yikes. - 28 stores between Texas and Louisiana seems pretty low. - Do they take the urban QFC stores, or just the brand name? - West Coast numbers seem a bit low. - There are 44 Mariano's stores and C&S is taking only 14. Are they going to sell others or just convert them to Jewel-Osco? 28 stor...
