CINCINNATI, OH - Another well-deserved recognition is signaling Kroger’s 2024 success as the retailer has solidified its rank among the 2024 Axios Harris Poll 100, a survey that demonstrates the reputations of the most visible companies in the United States.
"I am incredibly proud of our outstanding associates whose unfailing dedication to serving communities across America with honesty, integrity, and respect earned this designation," said Rodney McMullen, Kroger's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Providing our customers with the food they need to thrive is more than a mission; it is a responsibility to keep prices low and help families put fresh, affordable food on their tables every day. We do not take for granted the trust placed in us to feed America."
The Axios Harris Poll is a trusted ranking of the reputations of companies most on the minds of Americans, with a framework used by Harris since 1999, a press release stated. Survey respondents evaluate reputations against key dimensions such as ethics, trust, vision, and products and services.
Kroger has received consistently high marks on the survey, regularly ranking among America's most visible and trusted companies.
Part of Kroger’s success in this area is a result of its Zero Hunger | Zero Waste impact plan, which has provided $1.5 billion to support hunger relief—including 696 million pounds of surplus fresh food rescued—since its launch in 2017.
"Kroger's continual ranking on the Axios Harris Poll 100 is a testament to the company's relentless commitment to do more good for more communities by expanding access to fresh, affordable food for customers and job and career opportunities for associates," said Keith Dailey, Kroger's Group Vice President of Corporate Affairs. "This survey underscores Kroger's role in making meaningful, positive impact in our communities every day."
