The new east and west business regions will be located in Mechanicsville, Virginia, and Hopkins, Minnesota, and led by presidents Kevin Kemp and Bill Chew respectively.

Supervalu said the reason for the restructure was to “reduce operating costs while continuing to drive sales growth with its current and prospective customers”.

It “anticipates reducing” its entire workforce by 200 positions.

“Impacted employees will have an opportunity to apply for open positions within the new organisation,” the statement added.
