Kroger has appointed Nate Faust as Executive Vice President and Chief eCommerce Officer, effective September 1, 2026. Faust, a co-founder of Jet.com with previous executive experience at Walmart U.S. eCommerce Supply Chain, Diapers.com, and the logistics startup Olive, will lead the retailer’s digital business and eCommerce operations. The appointment is part of a leadership reshaping by CEO Greg Foran and follows Kroger’s establishment of a dedicated eCommerce business unit over a year ago. The move aims to drive profitable growth, following a reported 19% increase in adjusted e-commerce sales in the company’s first quarter. As Faust prepares to assume his role, Kroger is focusing on integrating digital assets—including pickup, delivery, and automated fulfillment—into a unified customer experience. The company is also working to combine grocery and prescription delivery services. This leadership shift occurs amid a broader softening in consumer momentum, as U.S. retail and food-service sales declined 0.6% in July to $763.6 billion, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
