Publix Recognized on Fortune’s Best Workplaces in Retail List for 11th Consecutive Year

Publix has been named on the 2024 Best Workplaces in Retail list by Fortune, ranking No. 5 of the 20 best large retail workplaces. Associates name the company’s support of its workers, dedication to service, welcoming culture and community outreach as some of the reasons they enjoy working for Publix.

“Being named one of the best workplaces in the retail industry for the 11th year in a row is an honor,” said Publix Director of Communications Maria Brous. “At Publix, we make an effort to stay true to the philosophies our company was founded on 94 years ago — taking care of our associates and communities.”

Care for Publix associates

Publix is committed to its associates’ well-being and continues to invest in their financial, physical, mental and emotional health, as well as their social connectedness and career engagement. As the largest employee-owned company in the U.S., Publix offers its associates the opportunity to become company owners through its PROFIT Plan, 401(k) SMART Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Care for Publix communities and the environment

Publix is dedicated to serving its neighbors in need and helping the environment. Twice a year, the company partners with its customers and associates during its Good Together hunger register campaign to give fresh produce and nonperishable food items to Feeding America partner food banks and other food bank organizations. Publix also donates food from its stores that is no longer salable but still safe for consumption. The company encourages its associates to serve their local communities during its two annual Publix Serves Weeks, when associates volunteer across the company’s operating area.

Additionally, Publix believes in making responsible choices when it comes to minimizing its impact on the environment. Sustainability is ingrained in the company’s culture through its mission to be involved as responsible citizens in the communities it serves. Publix supports conservation efforts by funding initiatives such as restoring land and water in the Florida Everglades, coral reef restoration, marine debris removal and planting trees in degraded watersheds and forests of greatest need using a portion of the proceeds from reusable bag sales. This year, Publix also launched the Good Together environmental register campaign giving customers and associates the opportunity to donate to efforts that protect, conserve and restore natural resources within their communities.
