Publix Associates Receive Prestigious Award for Community Involvement

During Publix’s annual stockholders’ meeting, the company recognized six associates with the Mr. George Community Service Award for outstanding commitment to their communities.

Publix founder George Jenkins, affectionately known as Mr. George, believed that Publix and its associates should make a difference in their communities. And since the Mr. George Community Service Award was established in 1995, 147 associates have received this prestigious honor.

“Mr. George believed that for a company to be successful, it must be involved in the communities it serves,” said Publix CEO Todd Jones. “Almost 93 years later, our associates still take these words to heart and remain committed to improving their communities and the people we serve.
