continued smooth integration of Ahold Delhaize.
Dick Boer, CEO Ahold Delhaize, said, "combining the parent
companies of the U.S. brands and RBS is the natural next step in
our brand-centric strategy in the U.S. Kevin is an
outstanding leader with extensive food retail experience and a
great choice to guide our U.S. businesses through this time of
continuing change and evolving customer expectations."
Kevin joined Delhaize Group in 2014 as CEO Delhaize America and

well positioned to continue to drive growth and innovation and meet
the evolving needs of customers, both in stores and online."
