We were delighted to join Stephen and Ayesha Curry’s 12th annual Christmas with the Currys event, in partnership with Eat. Learn. Play., to bring joy to the Oakland community.

We’re honored to have played a role in the opening ceremony of Divert’s innovative new Diversion and Energy facility in Turlock, CA. This cutting-edge facility is a game-changer in the fight against food waste, enabling the recovery of edible food for those in need and converting unsold products into renewable energy to power local communities. We’re proud to collaborate with Divert in our shared mission to reduce food waste and increase food recovery in our stores. Through this partnership, we’re able to better serve our customers while supporting local food banks and hunger relief organizations providing more opportunities to nourish our neighbors in need. It was great to see members of our local division staff and Albertsons Companies ESG team come together to show support for this impactful initiative. We're also glad to have donated product for the event, which will help support the Alameda County Community Food Bank. Divert Albertsons Companies Alameda County Community Food Bank
