Fishing in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence presents real challenges: limited visibility, shifting gear, and busy waters. To help address these risks, Publix Super Markets funded Smart Buoys for three Cape Breton harvesters. The Blue Ocean Gear buoys clip onto existing floats and stream live locations to onboard navigation — reducing time searching for their crab traps and lowering the potential for whale entanglements when traps go missing or displaced. Practical, proven, and immediately useful, this technology supports safer operations and healthier oceans. Thanks to Marc LeFort for the photo. Captain Mark shared, “The buoys are a valuable addition to our set-up — we’ll fine-tune the configuration next season.” #PublixGoodTogether #SustainableFisheriesPartnership

Our founder, Mr. George, believed that no one person could build a successful organization on their own, which is why he felt that all Publix employees should own a piece of the company. Mr. George began investing in stock for all his employees, or as we like to call them “associates,” so they could become owners. You can become an owner too! Visit apply.publix.jobs to view our current openings.

Meet Cindy, Business Development Director of Dry Grocery/Non-Food Consumables. Cindy’s Publix journey started in 1990 as a part-time expense analyst in accounting. After graduating college, she decided to go full-time. “I had many thoughts about pursuing something outside of Publix but was always encouraged by my managers and fellow associates to be on the lookout for job postings, that there were so many different departments to work in at Publix,” said Cindy. After spending a few years in accounting, Cindy became interested in purchasing and landed a role as the Facilities Purchasing procuring equipment for the deli department. From there, she transitioned into Corporate Purchasing as a logistics analyst and never looked back. During her 28 years in Corporate Purchasing her roles have been Pricing Analyst, Category Analyst, Buyer, Category Manager and now Director. Cindy is a perfect example of the endless opportunities that are available with a career at Publix. “My favorite thing about Publix is the relationships with fellow associates, mentoring future leaders and being able to continue to grow as an individual. Publix truly provides so many opportunities, as Mr. George always said, 'always be prepared because there is so much opportunity,'" said Cindy.
