"This agreement comes after thoughtful and productive work by both the company and union bargaining committees. I want to thank our associates for supporting this agreement and for the excellent service they provide to our customers every day," said Sukanya Madlinger, president of Kroger's Cincinnati/Dayton division, in a press release.
