SpartanNash Company (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SPTN) today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company’s common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
The new program will supplement the Company’s previous $50 million repurchase program. The new program will expire on November 15, 2022.
