Reggie Griffin, corporate vice-president of produce and floral merchandising and procurement for US retailer Kroger, has announced that he will retire on 29 October this year.

According to The Packer, Griffin is planning to move to Hilton Head in South Carolina with his family when he brings to a close his 42-year career.

'The Kroger Co. and the produce industry have been very rewarding to me and I will miss the daily interaction,' he wrote in an email to industry colleagues. 'Hopefully I will see many of you at the PMA convention in Atlanta later this week.'
