Empty shelves and a few random grocery items are all that’s left this week at the Kroger on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. The store closes Wednesday, one of two closing this month in southeast Raleigh.
The grocery store chain announced in November it will close the stores at 1610 Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and 4111 New Bern Avenue because they are no longer profitable.
