The chairman and CEO of Kroger, the nation’s largest grocery store chain and the parent company of King Soopers and City Market, resigned this week after an internal investigation into his personal conduct.
Rodney McMullen became Kroger’s CEO in 2014 and oversaw the company’s national growth over the last decade.
Kroger’s board “retained outside independent counsel to conduct an investigation” overseen by a special committee, according to a statement released by the grocery store giant. It’s unclear what conduct prompted the investigation, which began Feb. 21.
