Retailers' Produce and Vegetable Supply Management
Retailers’ Produce and Vegetable Supply Management: A Teaching Case Kurt Christensen Phone: 541-760-6172 [email protected] Zhaohui Wu Phone: 541-737-3514 [email protected] College of Business Oregon State University Corvallis, Oregon 97331 0 Abstract This teaching case compares and contrasts store operations and supply management of produce and vegetable of two very different grocery retailers. It illustrates the purchasing processes, supplier relationship management and merchandise strategies of each store. The objective of this case is to help students understand the competition and current development of produce and vegetable sector and challenge and opportunities in managing perishable food products. Class discussion questions are provided in the end of the case and teaching notes will be provided upon request. Key word: good supply chain, supply management, produce and vegetables, teaching case Background Produce and vegetable retailers face challenges in produce and vegetable purchasing every day. The products they sell are perishable mandating rapid inventory turns. Many items require special handling, storage and frequent inspections to reassess quality and safety. Many customers now expect and demand more choices such as natural and organic produce and vegetable products. In addition, traditional retailers face increasing competition from niche natural food stores such as Whole Foods, local co-ops, Farmer’s Markets and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) to innovate and meet the demands of changing demographics. The growing demand for social and environmental sustainability creates both opportunities and challenges for retailers. This trend mandates changes in how they manage logistics/inventory, supply relationship, product branding, store management and pricing decisions. -

Operating Divisions MAJOR MARKETS
Operating Divisions Kroger’s operating structure is a balance between our corporate office in Cincinnati, Ohio, and our 21 supermarket operating divisions. This balance keeps merchandising decisions closest to the Customer while achieving synergies in back office operations in order to maximize operating efficiencies and minimize operating costs. In areas that directly affect the Customer, Kroger’s decentralized structure places substantial authority for merchandising and operating decisions in our supermarket divisions. Divisional managers are able to respond quickly to changes in competition and Customer preferences within each local market. For administrative processes that offer economies of scale or are invisible to the Customer (such as procurement, accounting, treasury, operations, etc.), Kroger® leverages its size and centralizes those functions to create value for Customers and better returns for shareholders. Kroger’s 21 supermarket operating divisions are: Division Headquarters # Stores Harris Teeter Charlotte, NC 234 Kroger Southwest* Houston, TX 217 Ralphs Los Angeles, CA 204 Kroger Atlanta Atlanta, GA 186 Roundy’s Milwaukee, WI 151 King Soopers/City Market Denver, CO 148 Smith’s Salt Lake City, UT 138 Kroger Central Indianapolis, IN 136 Fred Meyer Stores Portland, OR 132 Food 4 Less Los Angeles, CA 131 Kroger Michigan Novi, MI 127 Kroger Columbus Columbus, OH 122 Kroger Mid-Atlantic Roanoke, VA 120 Fry’s Food & Drug Phoenix, AZ 119 Kroger Cincinnati Cincinnati, OH 109 Kroger Delta Memphis, TN 104 Kroger Louisville Louisville, KY 97 Kroger Nashville Nashville, TN 92 Dillons Food Stores Hutchinson, KS 81 Jay C/Ruler Seymour, IN 65 Quality Food Centers (QFC) Seattle, WA 65 TOTAL 2,778 *Beginning in 2016, the Southwest Division separated into two separate divisions (Dallas and Houston). -
