"We are delighted to welcome Nora to Kroger," said David Dillon, Kroger's chairman, who announced his retirement effective Dec. 31. "With her broad business experience and consumer and digital expertise, Nora will be a great addition to Kroger's Board."


Aufreiter is elected to serve until Kroger's annual meeting of shareholders in June 2015. At that time, she will stand for election by the shareholders. Kroger employs more than 375,000 associates who serve customers in 2,631 supermarkets and multi-department stores in 34 states and the District of Columbia.
