The Walnut Hills Centennial Kroger Store

It was just announced that this Kroger will close in the new year, which is awful because there are no other grocery stores in the immediate vicinity.

“The store has lost significant profits for more than 25 years and has been profitable only one year since 1991. Over the last six years, it has lost $4.9 million,” said Patty Leesemann, public affairs manager for Kroger.

They figure the new $25 million University Plaza store over in Corryville will serve the needs of the community.
