The holiday season is a perfect time to reflect on what we’re proud of and grateful for.

I want to share my pride and appreciation for your dedication and hard work in serving both your neighbors and the entire Publix family. Your genuine care for others truly stands out.

Recently, many parts of our operating area have been impacted by not 1 but 2 hurricanes — first Hurricane Helene and then Hurricane Milton just 2 weeks later. Whether you were in the stores helping customers or working behind the scenes to keep operations running smoothly, your efforts have not gone unnoticed.

You continue to show how much you care for your customers, communities and each other, all while upholding the highest standards of service.

Despite the challenges or storms we encounter, our Publix family remains strong because of you. I am incredibly grateful for and proud to work alongside you.

Thanks for all you contribute.
