A year ago this month, The Kroger Co. completed its purchase of Roundy's Inc. and proceeded to spend about $50 million remodeling its grocery stores in the Fox Valley and Madison.

“We’ll spend well over $50 million starting to remodel the stores in Milwaukee in 2017,” Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen told the Journal Sentinel last week. “We’ll continue to expand the Metro Market concept as well.”
