Kroger adds candy focus and new coffee line as shoplifting pressures grow
Kroger is being promoted as America’s candy destination and has introduced Javvy Coffee’s peppermint mocha line in its stores nationwide. At the same time, the retailer is dealing with a broader shoplifting trend that also affects Walmart and Target, adding pressure on margins. Industry peers such as Albertsons are also announcing cost cuts and store closures, while analysts note that Kroger’s recent cost‑saving measures could support a turnaround and view the stock as undervalued relative to its $68.32 average target.
