Publix's journey to greatness started 89 years ago (September 6, 1930). The company was founded by George W. Jenkins with headquarters in Lakeland, Florida, the US. Since its inception, Publix has been growing consistently and is today one of the leading supermarkets in the US. They currently operate over 1200 stores across the country in Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, and South Carolina with about 197,000 employed associates (as of 2019).
Publix has an online shopping platform where their vast customers can shop their favorite products even at their most convenient time. By shopping on their online store, you stand a chance to get a digital coupon, offering you a great discount on a wide range of quality products. Their mission is to be the world's number one quality grocery retailer. Through their community involvement and dedication to customer service, they have grown from one single store into America's largest employee-owned company.
The exclusive Publix buy one get one free (also known as Publix BOGO) special is one of the many ways the company rewards their customers' loyalty. They believe that without them, the height reached today wouldn't have been possible.
