Albertsons operating chief Susan Morris has held that post since January 2018. The disclosure of Sankaran’s impending departure comes the same day Kroger said CEO Rodney McMullen would resign.

Albertsons said on Monday its CEO Vivek Sankaran will retire and insider Susan Morris would assume the top role, as the supermarket chain shifts focus to build its digital sales and retail media business.

Albertsons (NYSE: ACI) announced March 3 that Sankaran — who is based in Dallas-Fort Worth along with several members of his executive team, although the company is headquartered in Idaho — would retire May 1. He will be replaced by Susan Morris, currently the company's chief operating officer. She appears to be based in Boise.
