The end of the year is a time when the busyness brings excitement, our personal calendars have more gatherings and we reflect on the year.

As I think about all we’ve accomplished, I want to thank you for everything you’ve done to help your co-workers feel welcomed and included, your customers be the stars in their homes and Publix be successful. I thank you for supporting our efforts to improve the environment and help alleviate hunger in the communities we serve. And most importantly, I thank you for being you.

Because of you, Publix is the company it is, and I hope you know how much your Publix family appreciates you.

Thanks for all you do.
