CINCINNATI, OH

Kroger has named Jay Cummins President of the Smith's Food and Drug Stores division and Joe Fey President of Kroger's Mid-Atlantic division.

Cummins has been serving as President of Kroger's Mid-Atlantic division and succeeds Mark Tuffin, who was named SVP of Retail Divisions in December. Cummins brings more than 40 years of retail experience to Smith's.

"In his more than 40 years with the company, Jay has been an enthusiastic and passionate leader in each role he has held," said Mike Ellis, Kroger's president and chief operating officer. "Jay's experience and commitment to our Customer 1st Strategy will ensure Smith's continues to go above and beyond for our customers."

Joe Fey has been serving as President of the QFC division and succeeds Mr. Cummins as President of the Mid-Atlantic division. Fey brings nearly 40 years of retail experience to Kroger's Mid-Atlantic division beginning his career as a meat clerk with Kroger in 1972 while earning a bachelor's degree in business administration at Indiana University.

"Joe always leads by example and is deeply committed to our customers, our associates and our company," said Mr. Ellis. "His merchandising expertise and experience in leading the QFC Division will be great assets in our Mid-Atlantic division. We are looking forward to his positive energy and guidance."
