Regional supermarket chains Meijer and Publix have teamed up in their respective markets with Produce for Kids to educate kids and parents on the health benefits of eating fresh produce.
The grocer's loss prevention manager of distribution was recognized for his part in uncovering the largest known organized retail crime ring in history.
Lakeland, Fla.-based Publix Super Markets is trying to entice consumers to cook at home and save money, via a promotion for its Apron's meal ideas running on the home page of its Web site.
Only 10 of the 49 stores to be bought by Publix are within a two-mile operating radius of a Winn-Dixie location that does not currently compete with an existing Publix, retailer said.
