Kroger eases talks but labor dispute lingers nationwide
Kroger officials say the primary health care concerns are addressed yet contract details remain private. Stores may reopen in up to 10 days if union members ratify, while 44 supermarkets have closed across three states and 4,000 Indiana workers remain without a new contract. Kroger shares fell to 17.31 as third quarter earnings dropped amid labor disputes, with full year profits forecast below prior expectations. A separate West Virginia ruling granted benefits to over 1,700 striking Kroger workers, up to 350 dollars weekly, after stores closed before the strike.
