Kroger is set to close 60 locations across the country over the next 18 months, the company announced on June 20.

Erin Rolfes, a spokesperson for Kroger, told USA TODAY the company would not be releasing a full list of closures, but several closing locations have been identified through media reports in several states, including Illinois, Kentucky, Texas and more.

Interim CEO Ron Sargent said during a conference call on Friday, June 20 that the unprofitable stores being closed were spread around the U.S.

Kroger operated 2,731 stores at the beginning of its fiscal year, meaning the closures represent about 2% of all of its locations.

According to Kroger's first quarter 2025 sales report, the company expects a "modest financial benefit" will result from closing "approximately 60 stores." Kroger also said it intends to reinvest the savings from the closures into boosting customer experience.

Kroger will offer roles in other stores to all associates currently employed at closing locations, the report says.

The chain also reaffirmed its plan to spend between $3.6 billion and $3.8 billion this year on capital expenditures, such as money for building new stores and expanding and renovating existing ones.
