Albertsons CEO sees digital growing to 20 percent of grocer's total

Vivek Sankaran, president and CEO of Albertsons Cos., sees the potential for online sales to make up 20 percent of the grocery giant's total revenues. “We’ve put a lot of money and energy into our digital transformation. We are excited. We’re going to roll out a whole new suite of customer-facing applications in April. We’ve been working on it through the year," he said. "Our e-commerce business has grown tremendously. We now have 1,400 locations with Drive Up & Go [curbside pickup]. We’ll get to 1,800 before this year is over. And we are aiming for two-hour deliveries in all our markets.”
