The largest employee-owned supermarket chain in the U.S., Publix was founded by George W. Jenkins in 1930 in Winter Haven, Florida. Now one of the largest-volume supermarket chains in the country, Publix reported retail sales of $36.1 billion in 2018. The grocer ranked No. 1 on Fortune's inaugural list of Best Big Companies to Work For and came in 12th on the 2019 list.

Not to mention the legendary sub sandwiches from the Publix Deli — which fans may argue are better than many of <a href="https://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/eats/sns-the-best-sandwich-in-every-state-20200128-5pilfmkomfaabc56zueithgwm4-photogallery.html">the best sandwiches across the country.</a>
