Kern County Vons stores face takeover talks and jobs risk
Ongoing talks on who will operate the three Kern County Vons stores after Safeway Inc. signed a 1.57 billion deal to acquire 325 Vons locations. Independent chain Certified Grocers of California and its Apple Ranch Markets are also involved. Closures announced in December threatened about 134 jobs, with potential rehiring for vacated sites. Local managers declined comment while Shafter City Manager Wade McKinney welcomed a prospective operator, praising Provenzano as community minded.
