Grocery store chain Kroger closed its location on Veterans Memorial Drive in November, Community Impact confirmed with a spokesperson from the company.

Two-minute impact

The closure follows a series of shuttered Kroger locations in the Greater Houston area earlier this year, including The Woodlands and Dickinson, as previously reported by Community Impact.

"While we are leaving this location, we will offer each impacted associate the opportunity to transfer to a new location," a Kroger spokesperson said in a Dec. 5 statement to Community Impact. "This closure is part of a larger company-wide decision to run more efficiently and ensure the long-term health of our business."
