Albertsons chalked up $54B in revenues and $994.4M in net income during its most recent nine-month fiscal period.

Albertsons, on April 21, unveiled its “science-based targets initiative” designed to meet emissions goals established by the United Nations’ Paris Agreement.
“We are passionate about making a meaningful difference in our neighborhoods and planet and are committed to continuing to reduce our climate impacts,” Albertsons CEO Vivek Sankaran said in announcing the program.
