Make Dinnertime Fresh Together

PR Newswire

Retailer brings the family together in the kitchen


CINCINNATI
, Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Kroger Co. (NYSE: KR) today shared easy tips to make a fresh family meal together, centered around in-season fruits and vegetables, that even the youngest kids can enjoy preparing.

“Cooking and eating together as a family can be a rare pleasure,” said Carlo Baldan, Kroger group vice president of Fresh Merchandising. “Eating fresh, in season fruits and vegetables is a healthy and simple way to gather, especially in the summertime. With endless ways to prepare a meal, often highlighting the incredible natural flavors found in Kroger’s produce section is simply the best and made even better together with family.”

Enjoy summertime with produce at its peak of freshness:

  • Vegetables: Avocados, Beets, Bell Peppers, Carrots, Celery, Corn, Cucumbers, Eggplant, Garlic, Green Beans, Okra, Onions, Peas, Summer Squash, Tomatillos, Tomatoes and Zucchini
  • Fruits: Apricots, Blackberries, Blueberries, Cantaloupe, Cherries, Honeydew Melon, Mangos, Peaches, Pears, Plums, Raspberries, Watermelon, Strawberries, Apples, Pineapple and Bananas
  • Citrus: Lemons and Limes

Have fun in the kitchen and explore how fresh foods impact health and wellness with these tips from Kroger, including:

  • Eat the rainbow: Eating a variety of fruits and vegetables ranging in colors like red, green, orange, yellow and purple provide maximum nutrition benefits that help fight chronic and preventable diseases. Toss together a crisp salad using vegetables in season such as tomatoes, corn, carrots and cucumbers. The smallest helpers can wash the produce with a thorough check from adults. Little ones can also have fun building the salad, creating their own array of vibrantly colored vegetables.
  • Make it a craft: With the help of an adult, build a skewer with prepared onions, bell peppers, zucchini and summer squash. Create fun patterns using the ingredients, rotating colors, shapes and sizes. A few minutes on the grill will keep the vegetables crisp and add a delicious caramelization.
  • Experiment with spices and herbs: Dress up fresh items with natural ingredients like rosemary, oregano, paprika, salt, pepper or cumin to bring out the incredible flavors of vegetables such as green beans, eggplant, okra, summer squash and more. Measure out spices and herbs ahead of time for young chefs, allowing them to experiment, taste and season.
  • Cool down with dessert: Make simple popsicles using in season berries and watermelon. Try blending fruits with Greek yogurt, honey and a squeeze of citrus—lemon or lime—for a treat kids will have fun making and eating. Or keep it simple with frozen bananas and let the family pick toppings like peanut butter or dark chocolate.
  • Try something new: Be bold and try Kroger’s exclusive seasonal offerings. New this summer are super sweet, exceptionally juicy Private Selection® Black Diamond Watermelons. Perfect for cookouts, snacks and even breakfast. Do not miss out on the limited-time only Private Selection® Hatch Chiles, a seasonal customer favorite straight from the farm fields of Hatch, New Mexico. Available in mild, medium, hot and extra hot, there are chiles for every palate but be sure to get them while they last.

In addition to fruits and veggies, create a balanced meal with lean proteins like chicken and fish and include heart healthy grains such as whole wheat pasta, brown rice or quinoa.

Eating fresh, seasonal produce is an excellent way to incorporate healthy foods into diets. Beyond the produce section, Kroger customers can easily find nutrition options by utilizing the OptUP program and checking the FoodHealth Score of their favorite products.

The offering consists of a common equity PIPE delivering $500,000,000 in gross proceeds plus up to an additional $750,000,000 in cash which may be received from exercised warrants to be issued in the private placement (assuming 100% of warrants are exercised).

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business.

Draganfly Demonstrates Integrated Tactical Strike System at Invite-Only Pentagon Event

Washington, D.C., Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO; CSE: DPRO; FSE: 3U8A), an award-winning, industry-leading developer of drone solutions and systems, proudly participated at the Pentagon’s Low-Cost Uncrewed Combat Attack Systems (“LUCAS”) at a recent invite-only event. Selected by MMS Products, Inc. (“MMS”), the developer of the Mjolnir Modular Munition System (“Mjolnir”), Draganfly’s UAV platforms were showcased with integrated kinetic payload capabilities, demonstrating the future of low-cost, scalable, autonomous lethality for modern conflict.

This milestone builds on the Company’s 2024 collaboration with MMS’ Mjolnir, in which Draganfly was chosen to develop a tactical multi-drop payload system. The Pentagon event provided a national-stage venue for demonstrating this integrated solution to senior U.S. Department of Defense officials and allied partners from across the global defense enterprise.

Demonstrating Next-Generation Tactical Integration

Draganfly’s Group I UAS platforms demonstrated the deployment of the Mjolnir warhead, a lightweight, modular, drone-agnostic munition engineered for ISR-to-strike fusion, precision effects, and contested-environment survivability. The platform’s performance highlighted Draganfly’s technical leadership in secure autonomous flight systems and modular payload integration.

“Being invited to demonstrate our integrated solution with MMS at the Pentagon event is a major validation of the work we’re doing in tactical UAV innovation,” said Cameron Chell, CEO of Draganfly. “This collaboration illustrates our commitment to mission-ready technologies that enhance operational effectiveness and warfighter survivability.”

Operational Impact and Strategic Relevance

Draganfly’s inclusion at LUCAS signals a growing demand for interoperable, field-adaptable systems across homeland security and defense domains. The integration of MMS’s Mjolnir, capable of supporting fragmentation, EFP, and anti-armor effects, into Draganfly’s platform represents a scalable solution for rapid response and complex tactical operations.

Notably, Mjolnir recently made history as the first live munition dropped by a U.S. Marine Corps VTOL platform, marking a turning point in the adoption of modular munitions across DoD uncrewed systems.

As global conflicts evolve, the need for agile, low-cost, and rapidly deployable technologies continues to intensify. Through partnerships like this, Draganfly and MMS are advancing the next generation of kinetic autonomy in defense.
