Kroger exploring strategic options for Turkey Hill business
The business has the potential for greater growth outside of Kroger, the company said.
The Kroger Co., Cincinnati, said it is exploring strategic alternatives for its Turkey Hill business, including a potential sale. With nearly 800 full-time, part-time and seasonal associates, Turkey Hill produces a full line of iced teas, fruit drinks, milk, frozen dairy treats and a variety of ice cream in its Conestoga, Pa., manufacturing and distribution facility.
"Turkey Hill is a unique CPG food business within Kroger Manufacturing, as it is a strong, nationally known brand," said Erin Sharp, group vice president for Kroger Manufacturing. "Turkey Hill's successful and recognizable ice cream and beverage products have the potential for greater growth outside of our company. We want to ensure Turkey Hill has every opportunity to meet its full potential.
