Kroger & Albertsons press on with merger — Reuters.com

Despite resistance from consumers and regulators, Kroger is determined to acquire Albertsons and both chains are prepared to sell off stores as part of the process:

“The divestitures would come as the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which is reviewing Kroger’s proposed $24.6 billion acquisition of Albertsons, is under pressure from some U.S. lawmakers and consumer advocacy groups to block it over concerns it could lead to grocery price hikes when inflation has already been raging.“
