Kroger and Publix hold the No. 1 and No. 2 spots in market share for grocery stores in the metro area. Shortly after leaving its home territory in Florida some 10 years ago, Publix came roaring into Atlanta and quickly moved to the No. 2 slot.
This year Kroger plans to open or renovate a total of eight stores. About half of them are on the outer edges of the metro area. Two closer-in stores will be renovated.
Kroger's new facilities will be smaller than the big 65,000-sf stores. Instead, they will range between 50,000 sf and 58,000 sf. Planned intown stores will be about 30,000 sf.
