Kroger has opened a 57,000-square-foot fulfillment center in Johnstown as part of its efforts to expand grocery delivery service in northern Colorado, one of the state’s fastest-growing regions.
“This facility will meet the needs of both our community and the immediate surrounding area,” said Matt LeCerf, town manager of Johnstown. Employees at Kroger’s center in Aurora will assemble orders and place them in climate-controlled vehicles to travel to Johnstown. Once the orders arrive, they are checked and placed on refrigerated delivery trucks that take them directly to customers.
