Kroger Delivery has commenced operation of a recently constructed Ocado-equipped fulfillment center in Aurora, CO. The intent is for Kroger Delivery serving Kroger banners including King Soopers and City Market to provide home delivery.

The 300,000 square-foot facility will deliver over a radius of 90-minutes driving time using refrigerated vans. The Aurora fulfillment center is located near Denver International Airport with access to both interstate 70 and State toll road E.470.

The center will initially employ 200, with the potential to expand to 400 jobs.

Kroger currently operates eight customer fulfillment centers in the U.S. supporting delivery to customers in 14 states.
