Who sponsors more H-1B visas, Kroger or Albertsons?

Kroger filed 69 certified H-1B LCAs in FY2025 and Albertsons filed 8. At least one of these is too small a number to support a meaningful ranking, so we don't declare one.

Which pays more on H-1B filings, Kroger or Albertsons?

Kroger averaged $133,954 and Albertsons averaged $170,232 across certified FY2025 filings. Median offered wage was $131,040 and $164,008 respectively.

How is this comparison calculated?

Both figures come from DOL LCA disclosure records for FY2025, filtered to certified petitions with annual wages between $30,000 and $1,000,000. Employer legal-entity name variants are grouped before counting (Kroger: 1 name variant; Albertsons: 2). An LCA is a required step before an H-1B petition, not the petition itself, so these are filings rather than USCIS approvals.
