Best Customer Communications

Kroger has earned the highest honors among retailers for effectively personalizing offers for shoppers*

Kroger shoppers are a tremendously loyal customer base. Today, the Kroger Plus Card plays an important role in grocery shoppers' lives with time-tested and valued programs like Kroger Fuel Points. Tapping into this level of engagement with rich customer behavior provides CPGs with tangible value they can measure. *(as published in Path to Purchase IQ 2023, Trends Report)

Loyal customers are the priority

Loyal Customers are extremely valuable to both retailers and brands. On average, 1 loyal customer is worth 10 non-loyal customers.
