“Historically, Jewel-Osco has operated its retail locations with two store directors — one to manage the Jewel food side of the business and another to handle Osco drug operations. The company will move to a new structure in which the standard will include a single store director who is responsible for the entire store operation,” the spokesperson explained.

“Jewel-Osco has realigned its store leadership model to become more efficient and competitive in the marketplace,” the spokesperson added.
