“A typical small-town grocery store. Not very large. By necessity has a limited selection. But it has some of the nicest employees I've run across in a grocery store for years. My last trip there was especially interesting. They had some high school-aged young men working in the check out area. I found them to be extremely polite and well-mannered. Literally a good example for my son. Now I don't live in Tishomingo. I'll make it to go to Sooners when I'm in town visiting relatives. But it always surprises me how much more polite the staff is there compared to the place I normally shop in the big city. EDIT: moved to Tish and shopping here on a regular basis.”

The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.

Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
