Under Lindberg’s leadership, Grocery Outlet increased its store count more than 250 percent and its net sales nearly 500 percent, expanding to markets across the country. Lindberg has served as a director since January 2006 and as chairman of the board since January 2023.
“On behalf of the board, I want to express my deep appreciation to RJ for his contributions to Grocery Outlet over the past 12 years,” said Lindberg. “RJ played a critical role in scaling and evolving our business and has set the stage for continued strong growth in the future.
“The fundamentals of our business — the significant value and treasure hunt shopping experience we bring to customers — remain strong and the runway in front of us is substantial,” said Lindberg. “I look forward to working with our employees, independent operators and supplier partners to deliver outstanding execution on our strategy and unlock Grocery Outlet’s earnings potential.”
