Bringing Diversity to the Table. Support Black-owned and Founded Brands.

In honor of Black History Month, The Kroger Co. and its associates celebrate the communities in which we live and serve by embracing diversity, including Black-owned businesses and Black-produced items, and items purchased by the Black community. While this is a month-long celebration, we’re committed to supporting Black entrepreneurs, items for and by the Black community, and our Black associates, every day.
