CINCINNATI, Sept. 11, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Kroger Co.
(NYSE: KR) is offering customers a new way to shop, save and make a
difference during its Zero Hunger | Zero Waste 5x digital event,
celebrating the company's social impact initiative's two-year
anniversary.
Now through September 17,
customers can support Zero Hunger | Zero Waste, Kroger's bold
vision to end hunger in the communities it serves and eliminate
waste across the company by 2025, by redeeming exclusive digital
coupons from Kroger.com or the Kroger mobile app.
For every participating digital coupon redeemed during the
event, the product manufacturer will donate 10 cents to The Kroger Co. Zero Hunger | Zero
Waste Foundation (the "Foundation")—a public charity
established to work with social enterprises, corporations and
non-profits that are committed to creating communities free of
hunger and waste. The Foundation hopes to secure more than
$1 million in partner donations from
the event.
"The Kroger Co. has a long history of serving our
communities through food inspiration and uplift - and we know our
customers want to shop with socially-conscious brands that have a
positive influence on society. Last year alone, Kroger directed
more than $192 million in food and funds to end hunger in
local communities, supporting Zero Hunger | Zero Waste," said
Jessica Adelman, Kroger's group vice
president of corporate affairs and chief social impact
officer. "Through this exclusive digital promotion, Kroger
customers can save money at checkout and be Zero Heroes by
joining us on our Zero Hunger | Zero Waste journey. Each coupon
redeemed gets us one step closer to our $1
million goal and supports important initiatives like
the Foundation's Innovation Fund, dedicated to ending
hunger in our communities and eliminating food waste."
The Zero Hunger | Zero Waste promotion includes more than 120
coupons, worth over $100 in potential
savings for Kroger customers. All 5x digital coupons can be
redeemed up to five times in one transaction.
