Following the success of the inaugural Supermarket Employee Day in 2021, established by The Food Industry Association, BGC will recognize the contributions of its employee-partners to the success of its operations in over 165 communities in the four states BGC serves. Supermarket Employee Day has become a nationally celebrated holiday and allows those in the food industry to honor employees at every level for the work they do in feeding families and enriching lives.

“Supermarket Employee Day allows us to share our gratitude for the commitment and hard work that BGC employee-partners dedicate to the communities we’ve proudly served for the last 95 years”, said Brad Brookshire, Chairman and CEO of Brookshire Grocery Co. “Our team plays a vital role in keeping the food supply chain flowing, and our company is excited to honor and celebrate them. We invite members of the community to stop by any BGC store on February 22, and any time, to congratulate and thank our local supermarket heroes.”

BGC recognizes and celebrates those who come to work daily to keep store shelves stocked and to provide our communities with the essential services and products they need to help them thrive. BGC employee-partners serve in times of crisis and volunteer countless hours, contributing valuable support and community service. BGC is celebrating its employee-partners by increasing their employee discount to a special 22% discount they can use on one transaction on Supermarket Employee Day, Feb. 22, 2024.

Customers are invited to visit their local BGC store on Feb. 22 to thank their hardworking BGC employee-partners. You can also honor your favorite Brookshire’s, Super 1, FRESH, Spring Market, and Reasor’s employees on social media using hashtags #SupermarketEmployeeDay and #SupermarketHeroes.
