Kroger stores on fast-growing pre-approval list for sports gambling kiosks
Multiple area Kroger stores have been pre-approved by the Ohio Lottery to host gambling kiosks for the grocery chain’s customers to place wagers next year when legal sports gambling begins in Ohio.
An updated list shows about 85 local establishments have now received pre-approval to host sports gambling kiosks. The majority are bars and restaurants, but there are also bowling alleys, and now a grocer.
The approval from the Ohio Lottery Commission is the first step local businesses have to go through to get sports betting in their establishments. They also will need to get approval for a “Type-C” license from the Ohio Casino Control Commission, which will use the lottery’s recommendation to determine whether to allow the business to partner with a larger sports betting company to install kiosks there.

Kroger is scheduled to celebrate renovations made to its location at 1095 South Main St., Centerville.
The remodel is a $2 million investment that includes updated décor and refreshed produce, meat and seafood departments, with additional fresh product offerings.
The retail giant is refreshing the store, which opened in 2011, because it wants to provide value to its customers, according to Kroger spokeswoman Jenifer Moore.
“We always listen to customer feedback, what they want in their store, what products they want, because that’s important to us to make sure that we are providing a great shopping experience,” Moore told this news outlet Wednesday. “Part of this remodel was to widen the opportunity to provide new amenities for the customers and also to bring them new products.”
