The Kroger Co.

US supermarket chain Kroger <a href="https://ir.kroger.com/news/news-details/2026/Kroger-Appoints-Greg-Foran-as-Chief-Executive-Officer/default.aspx">has appointed</a> Greg Foran, formerly head of Walmart's US division, as its new CEO. The decision puts an end to nearly a year of uncertainty about Kroger's leadership, Barron's <a href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/kroger-stock-price-new-ceo-cbc973e5?mod=RTA">points out</a>, recalling that the company's previous CEO resigned back in March 2025 - following an investigation that found his personal behavior inconsistent with Kroger's business ethics. Since then, the company has been led temporarily by Ron Sargent.
