Publix Super Markets has commissioned Swisslog to design and implement the automation for a new distribution centre. Founded in 1930 with its headquarters in Lakeland, Florida, Publix Super Markets is the largest and fastest-growing employee owned supermarket chain in the United States. In February 2011, Publix was recognized as the highest-ranking supermarket for customer satisfaction according to the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) for the 17th consecutive year.

The project will help support the stated mission of Publix to be the premier quality food retailer in the world and will provide a state of the art automated frozen food storage and distribution facility, utilizing the latest AS/RS and order fulfilment technology from Swisslog.
