a) History

3 KROGER’S GROCERY, WHICH WAS INITIALLY REFERRED TO AS GREAT

WESTERN TEA COMPANY AND LATER KROGER GROCERY AND BAKING CO.,

IS AN AMERICAN BASED CHAIN OF SUPERMARKETS. During the early 21st century,

Kroger was ranked as the third-largest chain store in the US. 4 THE HEADQUARTERS

OF THE COMPANY IS SITUATED IN CINCINNATI, OHIO. The origin of the company

business can be traced back to 1883, when Kroger, a former tea and coffee salesman who later

owned four stores by the 1885 (Kroger Co., 2019). The company later owned different food

products, growing to more than 40 stores.

b) Structure A combination of the foods and drugs sold defines the structure that the stores will

take. The structure of stores comprises various departments responsible for the execution of

various broad roles and responsibilities (Kroger Co., 2019). For example, general merchandise

items, department of clothing, and automotive products department.

c) Industry Kroger is categorized in the retail industry. Two products to be examined here are

beverages and sacks. Both beverages and snacks in the shop are found in full packages, and in

all sorts of brands (Kroger Co., 2019). Most of the beverages sold are ready for consumption by

the end users.

d) Net revenue and Earnings in the last three years

According to the article, macro-financial statements, annual revenue, and earnings of Kroger

Grocery for the last three years have not been normal. The values kept on changing. The annual

increase from 2016 to 2017 was an increase, 2017-2018 was a decrease while 2018-2019 was an

increase. "Kroger annual revenue for 2018 was $123.28B, a 6.89% increase from 2017, Kroger

annual revenue for 2019 was $121.852B, a 1.16% decline from 2018, Kroger annual revenue for

2020 was $122.286B, a 0.36% increase from 2019” ("Kroger Revenue 2006-2020 | KR", 2020).

1 E) TWO EXTERNAL FACTORS RAMIREZ-SANTOS REVEALS THAT KROGER

IS AMONG THE LARGEST SUPERMARKET CHAINS PRESENT IN THE UNITED

STATES. The supermarket owns approximately 2700 stores, which are distributed over 35

SafeAssign Originality Report https://blackboard.strayer.edu/webapps/mdb-sa-bb_bb60/originalityRepo...

2 of 15 04/08/2020, 10:17 pm

states and Columbia district. The workforce of the chain is approximated to at least 400000

employees. The larger number of employees are Hispanic (Ramirez-Santos, 2017). Other

minority groups have been allowed to work in stores. 1 TWO MAJOR EXTERNAL

FACTORS THAT CAN IMPACT THE SUCCESS OF AN ORGANIZATION'S

ENVIRONMENT ARE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION. The two are vital to the successful

growth of the company.

The issues of diversity should not be narrowed down to company employees alone, and it also

incorporates the entire supermarket industry, whereby where the market is filled with products

depicting the diversity of the clients. A large number of Hispanics triggered the company to

develop a Spanish website whereby they can access the required information in their language.

Kroger is listed in the top ten organizations in the US, which have considered the issue of

inclusivity a greater height. 1 "EVERY DAY THE KROGER FAMILY OF COMPANIES

MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF EIGHT AND A HALF MILLION

CUSTOMERS AND 443,000 ASSOCIATES” (THE KROGER CO., 2017). The company

is also known as one of the most generous because of its efforts to support more than 100

Feeding America food bank partners. The company also offers support to breast cancer

awareness and more than 145,000 community organizations.

Five ways in which primary stakeholders can influence organization performance Stakeholders

have the power to impact an organization either positively or negatively. Investors, clients,

employees, and suppliers are regarded as being primary investors. In whatever the company

chooses to do, stakeholders must be consulted in all ways possible. Although the stakeholders

impact the company, companies also impact stakeholders in several ways. 5 KROGER'S

KEY STAKEHOLDERS INCLUDE; 1 "ASSOCIATES, TRADE UNIONS,

CUSTOMERS, COMMUNITIES, SHAREHOLDERS, SUPPLIERS AND

MANUFACTURING PARTNERS, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND POLICY

INSTITUTES, INDUSTRY AND TRADE ASSOCIATIONS, NON-GOVERNMENTAL

ORGANIZATIONS, AND NON-PROFIT CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS.” AS

POINTED OUT IN THE ARTICLE KROGER CO., THE FOLLOWING ARE THE FIVE

WAYS THROUGH WHICH PRIMARY STAKEHOLDERS CAN IMPACT

ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE.

3 of 15 04/08/2020, 10:17 pm

a) First Power

Firstly, through sharing information and listening to associate feedback. This is important

because it facilitates recognizing existing challenges and understanding what is done well in

organizations and how they can be supported. Utilization of face to face discussion and holding

regular employee training ensure that associates easily connect to team members.

b) Second power The second way is regular communication with both local and international

trade unions via online meetings and also collective bargaining agreement (CBA). This impacts

the performance of the organization as plans will be easily met.

c) Third power

Thirdly, the creation of a close relationship with the surrounding communities and the

neighborhood. This can be attained by engaging them in activities the company does like

offering community care.

d) Fourth power Fourth is shifting focus on the ongoing site visits, organizational audits, and

meetings between the company and manufactures and suppliers. This will uphold the mutual

understanding of the parties making up the company.

e) Fifth power The last factor is fully engaging the government policymakers and officials at the

national level. This is meant to increase the awareness of the Kroger's commitment and

accountability as a grocery retailer in the US.

6 CONTROVERSIAL CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY CONCERN

ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR COMPANY

Kroger was involved in a controversy that revealed that the company is yet to close all its stores

present in the black neighborhoods. In defense of the claims, the company insisted that all the

firms that are not doing well in generating profits will be closed. The firms will be closed based

on their sales and profits records and not by their geographic location. 7 RAINEY POINTS

SafeAssign Originality Report https://blackboard.strayer.edu/webapps/mdb-sa-bb_bb60/originalityRepo...

4 of 15 04/08/2020, 10:17 pm

REVEALS THAT ALL THE SHOPS TO BE CLOSED LIE IN THE MINORITY

COMMUNITIES (RAINEY, 2018). This triggered people living in the community to

demonstrate and hold rallies in front of the stores, purported to be closed. While the rallies

were going on, Kroger decided to close a total of 41. Closure of the stores was later explained in

a statement that stated that they must make profits so that they can serve their customers.

Conclusion In conclusion, social performance is among the top strategies through which

organizations' social missions are achieved. Organizations must administer their social

performance knowingly and carefully if they have to attain a powerful social performance. 8

WOODS (2016) POINTED OUT THAT “IT REFERS TO THE PRINCIPLES,

PRACTICES, AND OUTCOMES OF BUSINESSES’ RELATIONSHIPS WITH

PEOPLE, ORGANIZATIONS, INSTITUTIONS, COMMUNITIES, SOCIETIES, AND

THE EARTH, IN TERMS OF THE DELIBERATE ACTIONS OF BUSINESSES

TOWARD THESE STAKEHOLDERS AS WELL AS THE UNINTENDED

EXTERNALITIES OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY.” IN MY OPINION, KROGER HAS

DONE THE BEST IN TERMS OF SOCIAL PERFORMANCE. It is evident that the

company has a large number of customers, and many people are happy with the services the

company is offering the surrounding community.
