Fred Meyer

As we noted in the Smith's post, both Smith's and Fred Meyer (AKA: Freddie)are owned by Kroger, a $70 Billion Behemoth. During this discussion of Freddie, we will refer both to the Kroger's website and the Freddie website. Astute shoppers will also note that a lot of the food sold at both Freddie and Smith's is branded "Inter-American."
I can't verify this but I suspect that Inter-American is a "captive" of Kroger corporate. Inter-American runs 36 manufacturing plants through America. Here's the best info I've been able to find about them. More soon--this is a Chippewa Project. I gotta chip-away at it to become a Chippewa!
