Kroger Invites Customers to Support Sustainable Seafood
(UNITED STATES, 4/24/2014)
The Kroger Co. (NYSE: KR) has recently released a video series designed to inform customers about the company's work to source sustainable seafood.
"We know that our customers value our commitment to sourcing sustainable seafood," said Suzanne Lindsay-Walker, Kroger's director of sustainability. "We continue to work with fisheries and our supplier partners to ensure that Kroger's seafood is fresh, delicious and available for future generations."

| Kroger's goal is to source 100% of its top 20 wild-caught species from fisheries that are MSC certified, in MSC full assessment, or engaged in a WWF fishery improvement project by the year 2015. |
Kroger's strategy for responsibly-sourced seafood – which was developed in partnership with the WWF (World Wildlife Fund), a leading conservation organization – is explored in a three-part video series that has been shared through social media during the past two weeks.
