To honor these heroes, here is a message from Rodney McMullen, Chairman & CEO, The Kroger Co. 

My personal uplift during this unprecedented pandemic has been everything that our more than 500,000 associates are doing to bring our Purpose—to Feed the Human Spirit—to life. The Kroger Family of Companies is thrilled to recognize Brandon, Kelly, Ken, Mary and Regina for going above and beyond to display the true actions of a hero. For each of these incredible associates, there are thousands more across the country with the same heart, passion and dedication for the work they do to provide communities with access to fresh, affordable food during these uncertain times. To all our associates, thank you. Thank you for all you do to uplift our customers, communities and each other each and every day.

And a message from SlimFast

Leading is not easy during uncertain times. Yet, somehow, that’s exactly what our retail partners have done. They provided essential resources to the community, found innovative ways to help customers faced with difficult challenges, and offered a shoulder for people to lean on. During hard times, their teams leaned on each other, too. We’d like to say a heartfelt “Thank You” to the local heroes who never stopped serving others. The SlimFast family is proud of how our retail partners have helped people take on the day – together.
