After more than two years spent presenting a united front in their effort to merge, supermarket giants Kroger and Albertsons have turned against each other.
On Wednesday morning, less than a day after federal and Washington state court rulings both issued preliminary injunctions blocking the $25 billion merger, Albertsons announced it is suing Kroger for allegedly breaching the merger contract between the two companies. Kroger quickly denied the allegations and said it was instead Albertsons that violated the terms of the agreement throughout the merger process.
