Looking for Work? This Retail Giant Is Hiring 15,000 New Employees

The largest grocery chain in the U.S. is launching a massive hiring campaign to enhance its customers' experience.

Kroger has announced plans to hire 15,000 new employees, including cashiers, baggers, deli bakery clerks, pharmacy techs, and delivery drivers.

"Led by Our Purpose to Feed the Human Spirit, we are hiring dedicated associates who share our commitment to be Fresh for Everyone in delivering fresh, affordable food and exceptional customer experiences," Kroger’s chief associate experience officer, Tim Massa, said in a statement, according to MSN.

"We invite future associates to make a home at Kroger and discover a fresh opportunity with competitive pay and benefits, flexible schedules, and a promise to invest in your future," Massa added.

The Cincinnati-based grocery chain hopes to woo young people by offering up to $21,000 for part-time and full-time associate positions.

Kroger operates more than 2,700 stores nationwide, and their employee boost comes after a failed merger with rival Albertsons.

Earlier this year, Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen resigned following an investigation into his "personal conduct."

The hiring blitz comes as retailers face immense pressure due to President Donald Trump's tariffs on imported goods.

Walmart recently announced that customers should expect to pay more when visiting their stores following the tariff hikes.

Despite some uncertainty, food and beverage retailers added 9,500 positions in April and nearly 21,000 in March.
