As they continue to pursue a blockbuster merger, Kroger and Albertsons have identified nearly three-dozen Illinois stores they plan to sell as part of a divestiture agreement, the companies announced Tuesday., a total of 579 stores across the companies’ portfolios will be sold to C&S as part of a deal designed to earn federal approval of the merger, with regulators having earlier this year raised concerns about lack of competition and other factors in resisting a final deal.
Most of the affected stores in Illinois carry the Mariano's brand, while a total of four Jewel-Osco locations in the city and suburbs will be included in the sale.
