The Kroger Co. announced the official opening of a new spoke in Austin, Texas.
This facility opening means customers can tap into Kroger’s incredible selection of fresh items, unique Our Brands products, and favorite national brands, as well as individualized offers for the groceries most important to their families – all delivered directly to their door by a friendly, professional associate.
Kroger was joined by the local community to officially open the spoke and to celebrate its new associates.
The 70,121-square-foot spoke facility located in Austin, Texas will work in conjunction with the Dallas fulfillment center.
All orders are picked at the products’ peak freshness within the Dallas facility. Associates carefully assemble orders and place them in climate-controlled vehicles to travel to Austin.
Once the orders arrive, they are checked and placed on refrigerated delivery trucks that deliver directly to customers’ doors, ensuring cold and frozen products remain at the perfect temperature from the supplier to the customer’s refrigerator.
The facility will employ nearly 70 associates. Learn more about pursuing a career at Kroger here.
