Kroger and Albertson's released the list of stores the companies plan to sell Tuesday, should a merger between the grocery giants be approved by regulators.

The list outlines the 579 stores that will be transferred from the merging companies to C&S Wholesale Grocers along with six distribution centers and one dairy plant.

Kroger has begun informing employees at affected locations that they will become employees of C&S after the close of the merger, Bloomberg reported. The companies agreed to the sale of 579 stores in April.

"The comprehensive divestiture plan with C&S is critical to bringing the meaningful and measurable benefits of our merger with Albertsons to associates, customers and communities across America," Kroger said in a statement to USA TODAY Wednesday.

The merger was announced in October 2022 but the Federal Trade Commission sued to stop it in February. The merger represents approximately 20% of the U.S. grocery market, according to the USDA and would affect one out of six grocery laborers if approved, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

"We remain focused on stopping the proposed mega-merger for the same reasons we have stated since it was first announced over 20 months ago -- because we know it would harm workers, it would harm shoppers, it would harm suppliers and communities, and it is illegal," United Food & Commercial Workers, a union that represents grocery workers, said in a statement Tuesday.

Albertson's said that no frontline workers would lose their positions in a statement provided late Tuesday night. "Associates will also continue to receive the competitive wages and benefits that they do today," the statement read. C&S, in a statement provided Wednesday, also said that the company would honor union contracts if the merger is approved
