This week, Kroger Nashville associates voted to ratify a new contract.

This is great news. We believe the ratified offer represents a significant investment in our Nashville associates by putting more money in your pocket and continuing to provide low-cost, affordable healthcare and a stable pension for retirement.

Thank you to everyone who took time to vote and support the fully recommended agreement. We are proud to reach an agreement that is good for our associates, our stores and the communities we serve.

Thank you for your patience during this negotiations process and for all you do for each other and your customers.
