Kroger Delivery Now Available In South Florida

MIAMI, FL —Kroger, one of the biggest grocery store chains in the nation, has arrived in south Florida with the opening of a new spoke location in Miami.

"We are thrilled to welcome Kroger Delivery to Miami-Dade County as they expand their Florida footprint," said James Kohnstamm, Executive Vice President, Miami-Dade Beacon Council.

The 60,000 square-foot high-tech distribution center will bring 200 new jobs to Opa Locka and adjacent communities, Kohnstamm added.

According to Kroger, the facility will offer job opportunities with roles in logistics, human resources and transportation to support the expansion in south Florida.

"Kroger's new hub in Miami-Dade County is an innovative program that demonstrates how business leaders are leveraging technology to provide important services and job opportunities," said Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava.

Through its hub-and-spoke delivery network, Kroger said it's able to easily serve customers in central Florida, Tampa, Jacksonville, and now south Florida, without traditional brick-and-mortar stores.

At the spoke site in Miami, customers will have items delivered to their homes using refrigerated vans, which can store up to 20 orders.
