Kroger and Albertsons would unload 91 grocery stores in Colorado if the companies prevail in lawsuits and regulators’ opposition to a merger of the two large supermarket chains.

A sign is displayed outside a Safeway grocery store Wednesday, Feb. 14, 2024, in Denver. Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser announced the filing of a lawsuit to block the Kroger/Albertsons merger on the basis of eliminating competition during a news conference Wednesday, in Denver. are spread across the state, ranging from Alamosa and Cortez to Fraser and Frisco with several in metro Denver. Two Albertsons stores are on the list of those to be sold. The rest are Safeways.

“The workers wanted to know.

The FTC didn’t respond to a question about the hearing.

The $1.9 billion deal to sell some of the companies’ stores to C&S Wholesale Grocers is intended to spur competition when Kroger and Albertsons consolidate.

Haggen, a small supermarket chain based in Washington state, bought some of the stores and in less than a year filed for bankruptcy.
