“Our significant investment in Preble County and the city of Eaton with this new location and services represents our ongoing commitment to the local community, which we’ve been part of since 1949,” Jenifer Moore, corporate affairs manager, said.
The new Kroger location will offer a variety of services, including Kroger PickUp, Starbucks, Murray’s Cheese, a Pharmacy with a drive-thru, and a Fuel Center that opened last week.
This expansion is part of Kroger’s broader plan to invest $130 million in 2025 across Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky.
