Well, that didn't last long. Roughly two years after expanding its grocery delivery business into San Antonio, Kroger is pulling out of the market, according to an online statement from company officials.

Roughly two years after expanding its grocery delivery business into San Antonio, Kroger is pulling out of the market, according to an online statement from company officials. The nation's largest grocer is shutting down similar ventures in Austin and Miami as it downsizes its delivery footprint.in spring of 2022, aiming to take on hometown grocery chain H-E-B via an Amazon-style delivery model.

“We do not make these decisions lightly, and we understand the impact this has on associates, customers and communities,” the company said in its statement. “Kroger’s commitment to innovation means that we test and learn quickly to identify the most effective ways to deliver fresh, affordable food to our customers.

Kroger last had a brick-and-mortar presence in San Antonio during the early '90s, when it had more than a dozen stores in the market. It left in 1993 after coming to an impasse with unions representing its workers here. Since 1986, the SA Current has served as the free, independent voice of San Antonio, and we want to keep it that way.
