MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Kroger stores across Tennessee and Mississippi will soon be distributing the Covid-19 vacine through its participation in the Federal Retail Pharmacy Program.

“We appreciate this collaboration with the Tennessee Department of Health and the CDC as we continue to work to get Tennesseans vaccinated against COVID-19,” said Cindy Fisher, health and wellness leader for the Kroger Delta Division.  “We are strongly encouraging all customers and associates to receive the vaccine to curb the spread of COVID-19 in our communities.  

Kroger said it received a limited supply of the vaccine and dozens of stores across the Mid-South have it already. Stores in Arkansas will soon be added to the list.
