A day after two judges in two lawsuits ruled against the proposed $24.6 billion supermarket merger, Albertsons Companies said Wednesday it would end its merger agreement with Kroger.
If the supermarket megamerger goes through as proposed, Safeway stores in Colorado would be owned by two companies. Neither would be the current owner Albertsons, which would fade into acquirer and King Soopers parent, Kroger Co.
Albertsons Companies, which owns 103 Safeway stores in the state of Colorado, released a list of 91 stores across the state it plans to sell if a planned merger between the company and Kroger is approved.
