Amanda Rassi (Kroger) | Leadership During Crisis

Amanda Rassi is the Vice President of Marketing at The Kroger Co. which is America's largest supermarket by revenue and the second-largest general retailer. Last year, Amanda came on the podcast after just joining the company to discuss their big rebrand—from their updated logo to their new tagline "Fresh for Everyone.”  Kroger is now seen as an essential service (instead of just a grocery store) amid COVID-19. In this conversation, Jim asks Amanda what she has learned about marketing and brand building during a pandemic. Amanda also talks about how Kroger is doing their best to make sure that their stores' communities are well-fed and that their workforce stays safe. Lastly, during these challenging times, Amanda explains how Kroger is living up to its brand purpose and how this crisis will shape the future of grocery stores.
