Celebrate our truckers behind the wheel

Thank our drivers during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Sept. 15 – 21.

Publix truck drivers play a vital role in our supply chain. Not only do they ensure products are delivered to our stores, so customers have what they need and want,

In 2024, our truck drivers will

  • travel over 100 million miles
  • complete nearly trips and
  • make more than .7 million deliveries to our stores.

How we celebrate our drivers

National Truck Driver Appreciation Week is an opportunity to show our gratitude to our Publix truck drivers. We recognize their hard work and commitment with a special menu every day and a gift they can use to do their job, like gloves and flashlights. At our stores, associates show their appreciation for our truck drivers by setting up displays, making posters, and handing out snacks and treats.
