With a market cap of $43.9 billion, The Kroger Co. (KR) is a leading food and drug retailer in the United States. The company operates a variety of store formats, including combination food and drug stores, multi-department stores, marketplace stores, and price impact warehouses, offering groceries, pharmacy services, general merchandise, and specialty products.
Companies valued at $10 billion or more are generally considered "large-cap" stocks, and Kroger fits this criterion perfectly. In addition to retail, Kroger manufactures and processes food products and sells fuel through its fuel centers, serving customers both in-store and online.
