November’s veteran-focused hiring event performed better than Kroger’s first one-day veteran-focused hiring event in September. That day resulted in the company hiring 2,000 military veterans and their family members.

“I’m so proud of our store teams for their outstanding efforts during our national hiring event in November,” said Tim Massa, Kroger’s group vice president of human resources and labor relations.
