LANDOVER, Md. Ahold-owned Giant Food has announced that it has promoted one of its executives to the position of director of operations and merchandising.
Giant Food’s new dom, Bob O’Neill, will be responsible for overall operations and merchandising at 16 stores in eastern Pennsylvania.
O'Neill succeeds Mike Nicolaides, who will be reassigned to another position within the company.
Founded in 1936, Giant Food was acquired in 1998 by Ahold USA, which owns about 825 supermarkets in the United States, including the New England-based Stop & Shop chain, Giant Food's sister company. The two regional grocery chains have been jointly managed since 2004.
