Joe DiBenedetto, retired Atlanta division VP, was elected to Publix Super Markets’ board of directors, replacing Tom Hough, who retired from Publix’s board after five years.
“We are pleased to have Joe rejoin the Publix family in a different capacity,” said Publix Chairman of the Board Ed Crenshaw. “His more than 44 years of Publix experience, including being instrumental in the continued growth and success of our Atlanta division, will make him a strong addition to our board.”
DiBenedetto began his Publix career in 1975 as a front service clerk in Cape Coral, Fla. After working in different capacities throughout the company’s operating area, he was promoted to regional director in 1995 and to Atlanta division VP in 2011. He retired at the end of 2019. He also served on the Georgia Food Industry Association’s board of directors from 2011 through 2019.
