Serving diverse associates, customers and communities.
Our founder, George Jenkins, knew the value of people—all people. And it’s this commitment to diversity and inclusion that makes us who we are: a people business that strives to serve our associates, customers, and communities; and make shopping a pleasure for everyone.
Publix is proud to employ and work with people from many backgrounds, cultures, abilities, and ethnicities. We purchase products from both mainstream and diverse vendors that include women- and minority-owned businesses. Our diversity enables us to better serve all our customers and the communities where we operate.
“With over 250,000 associates, we benefit from being an inclusive company made up of individuals who look and think differently, with backgrounds from around the country and around the world. Embracing our diversity has driven us toward progress, innovation, and excellence for almost a century. This diversity fuels my hope for the future, and all that we will accomplish by coming together as one Publix with one purpose to care for each other with dignity and respect.”
