Dillons is a grocery supermarket chain based in Hutchinson, Kansas, and the flagship banner of Dillon Stores Division, one of the regional segments of The Kroger Company. Other banners under Dillon Stores Division include Gerbes in Missouri, Bakers in Omaha, Nebraska and Food 4 Less stores in Nebraska and Springfield, Missouri. Dillon's is the dominant grocery retailer in the Wichita metropolitan area with 18 stores and over 50% market share.
Dillon's operates a dry grocery warehouse in Goddard, Kansas, in addition to frozen foods and perishable warehouses in Hutchinson. A bakery manufacturing plant and dairy are also in Hutchinson. The dairy produces cultured dairy products and private-label milk for all Dillon's stores. Dillon's previously operated (until the late 1990s) dry grocery warehouses in Hutchinson and Lenexa, Kansas.
Although Dillons was acquired by Kroger in the 1980's, a member of the fourth generation of its namesake family, David Dillon, is now Kroger's CEO.
