Albertsons Companies

Albertsons Companies is pleased to expand our partnership with Afresh, bringing intelligent replenishment to every fresh department across our stores. This advancement is making it easier for our teams to deliver to our customers the freshest product available when they are ready to buy.   From bakery to produce, our teams now have smarter tools to make faster, more accurate decisions — helping us serve with greater precision and reduce waste while elevating the customer experience.   Thank you, Afresh, for your continued partnership and innovation. Together, we’re shaping the future of fresh grocery.

Albertsons Companies is proud to celebrate our United Family for being recognized with the 2025 Sustainability in the Food Industry Award by The Shelby Report . This is a testament to their unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and stronger communities.  Thanks to the hard work and dedication of United Family team members, over 1.5 million pounds of food waste was diverted, more than 1 million pounds of plastic and 16,552 tons of cardboard were recycled, and nearly 617,000 wood pallets were upcycled. Stores have also transitioned to LED lighting and encouraged the use of reusable bags to help reduce plastic pollution. Congratulations to everyone at United Family for raising the bar and being leaders in driving positive change. https://lnkd.in/gC9VrDzu

Our Southern California Division team waited many years for this Vons location in Santa Monica, Calif. to be re-built as part of a new, multi-use building. It’s a gleaming example of how our teams work with local officials and developers to make our stores feel a part of the neighborhood.  

Our NorCal Division team in Tahoe City, Calif. exemplifies what it means to be part of the community. Whether it’s being a familiar face in the store or supporting local events, their presence goes far beyond the aisles. We’re proud to celebrate the relationships they’ve built and the spirit they bring every day.

Dale Call, Store Director at Tom Thumb in Heath, TX, brings five decades of experience, resilience, and creativity to every aisle. Dale’s leadership is defined by hands-on involvement, a passion for mentoring others, and a knack for turning challenges into opportunities for his team and community. We recently caught up with Dale to learn how his commitment to people, tradition, and innovation continues to shape a store culture where associates thrive and customers feel at home. Dale’s approach proves that lasting impact comes from caring deeply and leading with heart.

Our Southern California team proudly joined thousands of passionate individuals from across Southern California for the Susan G. Komen More Than Pink Walk in Orange County — a powerful event uniting communities in the fight against breast cancer. Representing our SoCal Division’s Albertsons, VONS and Pavilions store banners, our Team AVPink raised an incredible $254,000, thanks to hundreds of supporters and with more than 40 associates, friends and family members participating in the walk.  Four of our associates also took the stage to “swing the colored wraps” with each color representing one of Komen’s four pillars: Research, Care, Community, and Action — a symbolic moment that captured the heart of the event. A special shoutout to our own Phil Markert, who was honored on stage as the largest single fundraiser, contributing an astounding $245,000.    Participating in the More Than Pink Walk during Breast Cancer Awareness Month isn’t just a fundraiser —  it’s a celebration of resilience, unity, and hope, bringing people together across the SoCal communities we serve. 

Albertsons Companies has reported results for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, which ended September 6, 2025. Identical sales increased 2.2% and digital sales increased 23%.   "In the second quarter, we delivered solid operating and financial results while continuing to invest in our core business and elevate the customer experience," said Susan Morris, Chief Executive Officer. "Strong performance against our strategic priorities fueled deeper engagement across our digital platforms, resulting in outsized growth in digital sales, pharmacy, and loyalty membership. Our productivity engine continued to offset inflationary pressures and fund investments in areas that matter most to our customers, including fresh categories and omnichannel convenience.”   "As we look ahead to the balance of fiscal 2025 and beyond, it is a new day at Albertsons. We’re operating from a position of strength, taking bold action, and leading transformative change with confidence. We’re investing with purpose, modernizing capabilities through scalable technology, and advancing ongoing productivity initiatives to fuel long-term growth. The $750 million accelerated share repurchase we announced today underscores our conviction in the value of our business and our commitment to delivering shareholder returns.”   Read the full results: https://lnkd.in/gPvPBgd6
