Dec. 5, 2024 — Publix Super Markets presented Atlanta Division District Manager Tammy Quirion with the 2024 President’s Award at the company’s annual retail operations conference in Orlando, Florida.

Tammy is focused on developing future Publix leaders and inspiring her teams by sharing growth opportunities with them.

“Often, we don’t see in ourselves what others see in us,” said Tammy. “It’s important to me to help associates realize all the opportunities Publix has to offer.”

Tammy said being recognized as this year’s Atlanta Division President’s Award recipient was unexpected and a great honor. She looks forward to continuing to encourage associates to work hard toward their goals.

“One of the most important parts of my job is to help develop our future leaders,” said Tammy. “As we continue to grow, we need associates who are ready to continue in their Publix careers. It’s my responsibility to prepare them to take that next step.”
