11:49 ET - Kroger plans to hire another 15,000 associates as cashiers, baggers, deli and bakery clerks, pharmacy technicians and delivery drivers, the company said. The move aims to boost the customer experience, Kroger said, adding roles across its retail, supply chain, healthcare and delivery units. The added hires represent just a 3.7% increase to Kroger's more than 409,000 full- and part-time employees as of Feb. 1, according to its latest annual filing. The workforce expansion plans come after the grocery-store chain's failed attempt to takeover rival Albertsons to compete with bigger retail giants like Walmart and Amazon. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
