Why people will drive miles to a Wegmans
-A major regional supermarket chain, and one of the largest private companies in the U.S.
-Raised the bar on the shopping experience - better quality goods, a spectacular abundance of choice, restaurant-quality prepared foods, beautiful stores and displays, a nearly telepathic level of customer service.
-Consistent low prices, every day, in all departments so that customers don't have to run around town chasing deals.
-An early adopter of new technology: Wegmans was one of the first supermarkets to introduce electronic discounts in 1990 and bar-code scanning in 1974. The late Robert Wegman co-chaired the public policy subcommittee for the grocery industry development of the UPC.
-Known for exceptional levels of charitable donations. Giving is focused on programs that reduce hunger, help young people succeed, and strengthen neighborhoods. Wegmans gave food banks 15 million pounds of food in 2009.
-Strong employee benefit programs, especially their employee scholarship program, which provides nearly $4.5 million in tuition assistance to employees each year.
-Industry analyst Neil Stern, quoted in a 1994 front-page story about Wegmans in the Wall Street Journal, said, "We consider them the best chain in the country, maybe in the world."
