Boca Raton Innovation Campus (BRiC) has announced the latest addition to campus with The Kroger Company. Kroger is the largest supermarket chain by revenue and the second-largest general retailer. Their Boca office – 35,000 square feet in BRiC's 4700 building – is a national headquarters supporting Kroger's digital businesses, including Vitacost.com, which the company acquired in 2017. The company moved to BRiC from across the street at 5400 Broken Sound Boulevard NW. "[BRiC's] rich history and compelling story as it relates to the digital focus of our Boca office is one of the several reasons we chose to move to campus," said Guy Burgstahler, Senior Director of Customer Experience for Kroger. "It is home to several South Florida businesses that collectively create a great atmosphere that we are proud to be part of." While the size of their office is roughly the same as the previous, their new space was designed to be more efficient.
