2011 PROXY STATEMENT

GENERAL INFORMATION

This Proxy Statement is being mailed on or about March 10, 2011 to the stockholders of Publix Super Markets, Inc. (the Company) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of the Company for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on April 12, 2011 or any adjournments thereof. The cost of the enclosed proxy is borne by the Company.

VOTING SECURITIES OUTSTANDING

As of February 4, 2011, there were 779,575,000 shares of common stock of the Company outstanding. Each share is entitled to one vote. Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 4, 2011 will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

VOTING PROCEDURES

A stockholder giving the enclosed proxy has the power to revoke it at any time before it is exercised by filing a written notice of such revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Company at the corporate office of the Company, 3300 Publix Corporate Parkway, Lakeland, Florida 33811 or by mailing it to the Company at P.O. Box 32040, Lakeland, Florida 33802-2040. The execution of the enclosed proxy will not affect a stockholder’s right to vote in person at the meeting should the stockholder later find it convenient to attend the meeting and desire to vote in person.

The proxy cards will be tabulated by employees of the Company. A stockholder attending in person or by proxy will be counted as part of the quorum for the meeting, even if that person abstains or otherwise does not vote on any matter. A majority of the outstanding shares of the Company entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast is required for the election of directors. The advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of the named executive officers and any other matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders will be approved if the votes cast in favor of the matter are greater than the votes cast in opposition to the matter. The frequency of the future advisory (non-binding) votes on the compensation of the named executive officers receiving the greatest number of votes – every one, two or three years – will be the frequency that stockholders approve. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” for the election of a particular nominee or nominees for director and/or advisory (non-binding) votes will not be voted for the director nominee or nominees and/or advisory votes indicated but will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.

1. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s By-Laws specify that the Board of Directors shall not be less than three or more than fifteen members. The exact number of directors shall be fixed by resolution of the then authorized number of directors. The Board of Directors has fixed the number of directors at nine members. The persons designated as nominees for election as a director are Carol Jenkins Barnett, Hoyt R. Barnett, William E. Crenshaw, Jane B. Finley, Sherrill W. Hudson, Charles H. Jenkins, Jr., Howard M. Jenkins, E. Vane McClurg and Maria A. Sastre. All nominees are currently directors of the Company. The proxies will be voted FOR the election of the nine nominees unless the stockholder specifies otherwise.

The term of office of the directors will be until the next annual meeting or until their successors shall be elected and qualified. If one or more of the nominees become unable or unwilling to serve at the time of the meeting, the shares represented by proxy will be voted for the remaining nominees and for any substitute nominee(s) designated by the Board of Directors or, if none, the size of the Board will be reduced accordingly. The Board of Directors does not anticipate that any nominee will be unable or unwilling to serve.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR all the nominees.

2. ADVISORY (NON-BINDING) VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF THE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

In accordance with recent legislation, the Company is providing its stockholders with an opportunity to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote on the approval of the compensation of its named executive officers.

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement beginning on page 9 contains details on the compensation of the named executive officers. Although the Company’s financial results are generally superior to the companies in its Peer Group Index as defined in the Performance Graph section of this Proxy Statement, the total compensation earned by the named executive officers is generally significantly less than the total compensation of the named executive officers of the companies in its Peer Group Index.

The Board of Directors recommends an advisory (non-binding) vote FOR approval of the compensation of the named executive officers.

3. ADVISORY (NON-BINDING) VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF THE FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON THE COMPENSATION OF THE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Also in accordance with recent legislation, the Company is providing its stockholders with an opportunity to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote on whether the advisory vote on executive compensation should be held every one, two or three years.

The Board of Directors believes that a frequency of “three years” for the advisory vote on executive compensation is appropriate as the Company seeks to maintain a consistent approach to executive compensation from year to year. The proxy card provides stockholders with the opportunity to choose among four options (holding the vote every one, two or three years or abstaining). Therefore, the stockholders will not be voting to approve or disapprove the Board’s recommendation. The frequency receiving the greatest number of votes will be the frequency the stockholders approve.

The Board of Directors recommends an advisory (non-binding) vote FOR THREE YEARS on the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation of the named executive officers.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE AND ROLE IN RISK OVERSIGHT

The Company does not have a formal policy regarding the separation of its Chairman of the Board (Chairman) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) positions. The Company determines the leadership structure it deems appropriate based on factors such as the experience of the applicable individuals, the current business environment of the Company or other relevant factors. The Company’s current Chairman retired as CEO in March 2008 after serving 34 years on the Company’s Board of Directors, including seven years as Director and CEO. Based on the former CEO’s extensive experience, the Company determined that separating the positions of Chairman and CEO is the appropriate board leadership structure at this time.

The Board of Directors is responsible for oversight of the Company’s risk management practices while management is responsible for the day-to-day risk management processes. This division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company, and the Company’s board leadership structure supports this approach. The Board receives periodic reports from management regarding the most significant risks facing the Company. In addition, the Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight role by receiving periodic reports regarding the Company’s risk and control environment.

BOARD MEETINGS

The Board of Directors held four meetings during 2010. All directors attended all meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors held in 2010 except one director who missed one Board of Directors meeting. In addition, all directors attended all Board committee meetings except one director who missed two committee meetings. The Company does not have a specific policy regarding director attendance at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders; however, all directors attended the last Annual Meeting of Stockholders on April 13, 2010. During 2010, the Board of Directors consisted of Carol Jenkins Barnett, Hoyt R. Barnett, William E. Crenshaw, Jane B. Finley, Sherrill W. Hudson, Charles H. Jenkins, Jr., Chairman, Howard M. Jenkins, E. Vane McClurg and Maria A. Sastre.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE (Continued)

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

The Board of Directors has determined that Jane B. Finley, Sherrill W. Hudson, E. Vane McClurg and Maria A. Sastre are independent as defined by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. The Company is not a listed issuer on a national securities exchange but has chosen the definition of director independence contained in the rules of the New York Stock Exchange as the Company’s director independence standards. The Company does not have a majority of independent directors.

In determining independence, the Board of Directors reviews whether directors have any material relationship with the Company. The Board of Directors considers all relevant facts and circumstances. In assessing the materiality of a director’s relationship with the Company, the Board of Directors considers the issues from the director’s standpoint and from the perspective of the persons or organizations with which the director has an affiliation. The Board reviews commercial, industrial, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and family relationships. An independent director must not have any material relationship with the Company, either directly or indirectly, that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

In applying its independence standards for each director identified as independent, the Board of Directors determined that Jane B. Finley, E. Vane McClurg and Maria A. Sastre have no material relationship with the Company other than as a director. The Board of Directors considered the fact that Sherrill W. Hudson serves as Executive Chairman of the Board of TECO Energy, Inc., a provider of energy to the Company. The Board of Directors determined that Mr. Hudson’s position with TECO Energy, Inc. does not interfere with the exercise of his independent judgment in that (1) payments made by the Company to TECO Energy, Inc. are less than 2% of TECO Energy, Inc.’s consolidated gross revenue and (2) TECO Energy, Inc. operates a regulated public utility which charges the Company rates in conformity with applicable regulatory authority.

COMMITTEES

The Board of Directors had the following committees during 2010, each of which is described below: Executive, Compensation, Audit, Corporate Governance and Nominating.

The Executive Committee’s primary responsibility is to act on behalf of the Board of Directors between meetings of the Board. During 2010, the Executive Committee held six meetings and consisted of Hoyt R. Barnett, William E. Crenshaw, Charles H. Jenkins, Jr. and Howard M. Jenkins, Chairman. All committee members attended all meetings of the Executive Committee.

The Compensation Committee has responsibility for reviewing and setting the salary and benefits structure of the Company with respect to its named executive officers. The Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to (1) assist the Board of Directors in evaluating the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other named executive officers and (2) assure that the Chief Executive Officer and other named executive officers are compensated effectively in a manner consistent with the compensation philosophy of the Company. The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which is posted on the Company’s website at www.publix.com/stock. During 2010, the Compensation Committee held three meetings and consisted of Jane B. Finley, Sherrill W. Hudson and E. Vane McClurg, Chairman. All of the members are independent as defined by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. All Compensation Committee members attended all meetings except one member who missed one Compensation Committee meeting.

The Audit Committee has responsibility to the Board of Directors for assessing the processes related to the Company’s risk and control environment, overseeing the financial reporting and evaluating the internal and independent audit processes. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which is posted on the Company’s website at www.publix.com/stock. The Audit Committee reviews and reassesses the charter annually and recommends any changes to the Board of Directors for approval. During 2010, the Audit Committee held four meetings and consisted of Jane B. Finley, Sherrill W. Hudson, Chairman, and Maria A. Sastre. All of the members are independent as defined by Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. The Board of Directors has also determined that Jane B. Finley and Sherrill W. Hudson are audit committee financial experts as defined by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. All Audit Committee members attended all meetings except one member who missed one Audit Committee meeting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE (Continued)

The Corporate Governance Committee has responsibility for reviewing and reporting to the Board of Directors on matters of corporate governance such as practices, policies and procedures affecting directors and the Board’s operations and effectiveness. The Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for recommending the amount and form of director compensation independent of management. The Corporate Governance Committee operates under a written charter. During 2010, the Corporate Governance Committee held four meetings and consisted of Hoyt R. Barnett, E. Vane McClurg, Chairman, and Maria A. Sastre. A majority of the members are independent as defined by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. All Corporate Governance Committee members attended all meetings.

The Nominating Committee has responsibility for reviewing and reporting to the Board of Directors on matters of Board nominations. This includes reviewing potential candidates and proposing nominees to the Board of Directors. The Nominating Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which is posted on the Company’s website at www.publix.com/stock. During 2010, the Nominating Committee held one meeting and consisted of Hoyt R. Barnett, Chairman, Charles H. Jenkins, Jr., Howard M. Jenkins and E. Vane McClurg. All Nominating Committee members attended the meeting. A majority of the Nominating Committee members were not independent as defined by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. In the opinion of the Board of Directors, each Nominating Committee member has the ability to make objective decisions independent of management.

The Company has no formal policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates recommended by stockholders. However, the Nominating Committee considers recommendations for director candidates from several sources, including stockholders. In general, candidates must meet minimum qualifications for directors as set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. The candidates also must have any additional qualifications identified by the Nominating Committee as may be currently required to maintain the appropriate balance of knowledge, experience and expertise on the Board of Directors. Candidate recommendations, together with appropriate biographical information, should be sent to the Chairman of the Nominating Committee, c/o Secretary, Publix Super Markets, Inc., P.O. Box 407, Lakeland, Florida 33802-0407.

The Nominating Committee has no formal policy regarding the consideration of diversity for its director candidates. In evaluating candidates for the Board of Directors, the Nominating Committee seeks to maintain a balance of diverse business experience, education, skills and other individual qualities and attributes in order to maximize the effectiveness of the Board of Directors. The Nominating Committee also considers the specific skills necessary for candidates to effectively participate on certain Board committees. The candidates should possess the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values and be committed to representing the long-term interests of the stockholders. In addition, selection criteria may include, but not necessarily be limited to, the following:

•   no conflict of interest

•   willingness to devote adequate time and effort to Board responsibilities

•   ability to work with current Board of Directors

•   ability to assess corporate strategy

•   willingness to provide management oversight

•   broad business experience, judgment and leadership

•   significant years of management experience in a senior policy-making position

•   knowledge of the supermarket business or other retail business and

•   knowledge of business trends including, but not limited to, relevant regulatory affairs.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Board of Directors has adopted a written Related Party Transactions Policy that delegates to the Corporate Governance Committee the authority to approve or disapprove of the entry into Related Party Transactions. The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing the material facts of all Related Party Transactions and either approving or disapproving the entry into a Related Party Transaction. In determining whether to approve or disapprove a Related Party Transaction, the Corporate Governance Committee takes into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the Related Party Transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances as well as the extent of the Related Party’s interest in the transaction. No director participates in any discussion or approval of a Related Party Transaction for which he or she is a Related Party. The Company defines a Related Party Transaction in its Related Party Transactions Policy as follows:

A “Related Party Transaction” is any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) the Company is a participant, and (3) any Related Party (as defined below) has or will have a direct or indirect interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity).

A “Related Party” is any (1) person who is or was (since the beginning of the last fiscal year for which the Company has filed a Form 10-K and proxy statement, even if they do not presently serve in that role) an Officer, Director or Nominee for election as a Director, (2) greater than 5% beneficial owner of the Company’s common stock, (3) immediate family member of any of the foregoing, or (4) firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a general partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a 5% or greater beneficial ownership interest. Immediate family member includes a person’s spouse, parents, stepparents, children, stepchildren, siblings, mothers- and fathers-in-law, sons- and daughters-in-law, and brothers- and sisters-in-law and anyone residing in such person’s home (other than a tenant or employee).

During 2010, the Company purchased approximately $2,076,000 of food products from Alma Food Imports, Inc., a company owned by Julia Jenkins Fancelli, sister of Howard M. Jenkins and Carol Jenkins Barnett, aunt of William E. Crenshaw, cousin of Charles H. Jenkins, Jr. and sister-in-law of Hoyt R. Barnett. The Corporate Governance Committee determined that the terms of the foregoing transactions are no less favorable than terms that could have been obtained from unaffiliated parties.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis includes the following: (1) an overview of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, (2) the compensation philosophy of the Company and (3) the components of executive compensation.

Overview of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee’s primary responsibilities include evaluating the Company’s philosophy regarding executive compensation and evaluating and determining the compensation of the named executive officers. These responsibilities may not be delegated other than to the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee has the authority under its charter to engage the services of outside advisors, experts and others to assist it. During 2010, the Compensation Committee did not engage any such advisors. All of the members of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors are independent as defined by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange.

The Chief Executive Officer and certain other members of management are invited to attend all or a portion of a Compensation Committee meeting depending on the nature of the agenda items, but the members of management do not vote on items before the Compensation Committee. However, the Compensation Committee solicits the views of the Chief Executive Officer on compensation matters, including as they relate to the compensation of other named executive officers reporting to the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee works with members of management to determine the agenda for each meeting, and management prepares the applicable meeting materials.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (Continued)

Compensation Philosophy

The Company includes in its employee handbook the following compensation philosophy for all employees (referred to as “associates” below):

As a food retailer in a highly competitive market, Publix recognizes that our associates are our primary asset and contribute to our competitive advantage. To achieve our mission, Publix must continue to attract, retain, motivate and reward highly qualified associates. To fulfill this responsibility we strive to:

• offer pay and benefits that contribute to our associates’ financial security now and at retirement

• offer wages that are competitive within our local markets

• provide benefits that meet the diverse needs of our associates

• reward associates for premier performance

• provide opportunity for future rewards as a result of promotion from within

• educate our associates on pay and benefits and

• ensure equal opportunity in all aspects of pay and benefits.

The Company’s compensation objective for its named executive officers is the same as for all employees indicated above: to attract, retain, motivate and reward highly qualified individuals.

In addition, the Compensation Committee considers additional factors when determining the compensation of the named executive officers. These factors include (1) the overall level of responsibility and the relationship to compensation levels of the Company’s management, (2) the compensation levels of executive officers of companies in the Company’s Peer Group Index, taking into account the size and financial performance of the Company, (3) anticipated competitive operating conditions and (4) overall economic conditions.

The Compensation Committee uses publicly available compensation data to review the compensation levels of named executive officers of companies in the Company’s Peer Group Index. The review includes base pay and bonus pay components, focusing on cash compensation since the Company does not have any non-cash compensation such as stock options. The Compensation Committee also compares the financial results of these companies to the Company’s results. Although the Company’s financial results are generally superior to the companies in its Peer Group Index, the total compensation of the Company’s named executive officers is generally significantly less than the total compensation of the named executive officers in its Peer Group Index. Therefore, the Compensation Committee believes the compensation for its named executive officers reflects its position that compensation should be set at responsible levels for all employees including the name executive officers and be consistent with the Company’s constant focus on controlling costs in its low margin business.

Components of Executive Compensation

The Company’s executive compensation includes the following components: base salary, incentive bonus plan, retirement benefits and other benefits. With the exception of the incentive bonus plan which has approximately 325 participants, these components are available to all or large numbers of the Company’s employees. The Company does not have a specific compensation program focused on its named executive officers.

Base Salary

The named executive officers are paid a base salary that is generally reviewed annually. As indicated, the factors considered in determining the base salaries of the named executive officers include (1) the overall level of responsibility and the relationship to compensation levels of the Company’s management, (2) the compensation levels of executive officers of companies in the Company’s Peer Group Index, taking into account the size and financial performance of the Company, (3) anticipated competitive operating conditions and (4) overall economic conditions. These factors are considered in conjunction with the performance of the named executive officers and the results of the Company. There are no significant differences in the compensation policies for its individual named executive officers.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (Continued)

Base Salary (Continued)

At his request, William E. Crenshaw did not receive a raise in 2010 due to the continued weakness in factor (4) overall economic conditions. The Compensation Committee approved raises effective May 1, 2010 for the other named executive officers as follows: Randall T. Jones, Sr. – 3%, David P. Phillips – 3%, Laurie Z. Douglas – 3% and John A. Attaway, Jr. – 4%. The compensation of the Company’s named executive officers is generally significantly less than the total compensation of the named executive officers in its Peer Group Index. However, due to the economic climate, the changes in base salaries for the named executive officers in 2010 were heavily based on factor (4) above. In addition, the Compensation Committee also considered the individual performance of the named executive officers. The base salaries for the named executive officers are listed in the Summary Compensation Table. The pay differences between the named executive officers are considered appropriate for their levels of responsibility.

Incentive Bonus Plan

The Company provides an incentive in the form of an annual cash bonus (the Incentive Bonus Plan) to all executive officers, including the named executive officers, and certain staff employees of the Company (the Incentive Bonus Participants). The Incentive Bonus Plan is designed to reward the Incentive Bonus Participants based on the Company achieving its sales and target profit goals (the Performance Goals) for the fiscal year and not on their individual performance. The Incentive Bonus Plan is approved by the Compensation Committee as to executive officers and by the Executive Committee as to staff employees. The Performance Goals are reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors after the completion of the Company’s annual planning process. Although the Company has a defined method for calculating the incentive bonus, the Board of Directors, Compensation Committee and Executive Committee retain the right to alter or discontinue the Incentive Bonus Plan at their discretion at any time for the Incentive Bonus Participants within their approval authority. To date, however, such discretion has not been exercised.

The Incentive Bonus Plan compensates the Incentive Bonus Participants for their services during the calendar year. The annual bonuses are paid in the year following the year earned to Incentive Bonus Participants employed with the Company at the end of the calendar year. In general, the incentive bonus pool is allocated to the Incentive Bonus Participants according to the relative base compensation paid to them during the calendar year for which the Incentive Bonus Plan is being paid.

The Incentive Bonus Plan is based on a target bonus equal to two months pay (the Target Bonus) for all Incentive Bonus Participants entitled to the full Target Bonus (participants generally transition into the Incentive Bonus Plan over a two-year period). The formula for the Incentive Bonus Plan is determined so that if the Performance Goals for the fiscal year are achieved, the Incentive Bonus Participants will receive the Target Bonus. The incentive bonus can be more or less than the Target Bonus based on the Company’s actual results compared to its Performance Goals. If the sales goal is not achieved, the incentive bonus pool, calculated using the formula, is reduced by 5% for every 1% that actual sales are less than the sales goal. If the sales goal is exceeded, the incentive bonus pool is increased by 5% for every 1% that actual sales are greater than the sales goal. No incentive bonus is paid unless greater than 80% of the target profit goal is achieved.

The Incentive Bonus Participants will receive a bonus in excess of the Target Bonus of two months pay for 2010 as the Company’s actual results exceeded its Performance Goals. Over the past five fiscal years including 2010, the Incentive Bonus Participants received an average incentive bonus of two months pay or approximately 15% of their base salary. Incentive Bonus Participants received the Target Bonus of two months or more in three of the past five years or 60% of the time.

The Board of Directors attempts to set Performance Goals that maintain a consistent level of difficulty in achieving the Target Bonus from year to year and are challenging but reasonably achievable. Therefore, the achievement of future Target Bonuses is likely to be similar to the past five years unless unexpected circumstances arise. Achieving the Target Bonus is dependent on the Company’s sales and profit results for the year which are dependent on many factors, including competitor activities and economic conditions. The Board of Directors, Compensation Committee and Executive Committee have historically not made changes to the Performance Goals or to the Incentive Bonus Plan formula for the fiscal year after their approval. Therefore, it is likely that positive or negative changes in various factors, including competitor activities and economic conditions, will affect the likelihood and difficulty of achieving the Target Bonus for the fiscal year. The Company expects the prior results of achieving the Target Bonus in some years and not achieving it in other years to continue.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (Continued)

Retirement Benefits

The Company has a trusteed, noncontributory defined contribution ESOP for the benefit of eligible employees. The amount of the Company’s discretionary contribution to the ESOP is determined annually by the Board of Directors and can be made in the form of Company common stock or cash. The Company’s contribution to the ESOP is allocated to all eligible participants on the basis of compensation, and the ESOP does not discriminate, in scope, terms or operation, in favor of the named executive officers. Non-employee directors of the Company’s Board of Directors do not participate in the ESOP. Company contribution amounts earned by the named executive officers are listed in the Summary Compensation Table.

The Company does not have any supplemental executive retirement plans. Therefore, due to the maximum annual compensation limit for retirement plans established by federal law, the named executive officers did not receive Company contributions under the ESOP for their 2010 compensation in excess of $245,000.

The Company has a 401(k) Plan for the benefit of eligible employees. The 401(k) Plan is a voluntary defined contribution plan. Eligible employees may contribute up to 10% of their eligible annual compensation, subject to the maximum contribution limits established by federal law. The Company may make a discretionary annual matching contribution to eligible participants of the 401(k) Plan as determined by the Board of Directors. During 2010, the Board of Directors approved a match of 50% of eligible contributions up to 3% of eligible compensation, not to exceed a maximum match of $750 per employee. The match, which is determined as of the last day of the 401(k) Plan year and paid in the subsequent year, is in the form of common stock of the Company. The 401(k) Plan does not discriminate, in scope, terms or operation, in favor of the named executive officers. Non-employee directors of the Company’s Board of Directors do not participate in the 401(k) Plan. Company matching contributions earned by the named executive officers are listed in the Summary Compensation Table.

Other Benefits

The Company’s group health, dental, vision and supplemental life insurance plans are available to eligible full-time and part-time employees, and the group life insurance and long-term disability plans are available to eligible full-time employees. These plans do not discriminate, in scope, terms or operation, in favor of the named executive officers. Non-employee directors of the Company’s Board of Directors do not participate in the plans.

The Company does not provide country club memberships, personal use of Company airplanes, tax and financial planning services or other perquisites frequently offered to executive officers. Prior to July 1, 2009, four of the named executive officers used a company provided vehicle. Beginning July 1, 2009, the named executive officers no longer use a company provided vehicle but receive a vehicle allowance. The total value for 2010 of the vehicle allowance is less than $10,000 per named executive officer.

In addition, the Company does not provide the following forms of compensation or arrangements frequently offered to executive officers:

• long-term cash incentives

• stock options, stock awards or other equity incentives

• deferred compensation plans or

• employment contracts/change in control agreements/severance agreements.

The Company does not provide compensation that is directly tied to the results of the Company’s common stock performance. However, since the retirement benefits under the ESOP are substantially in the form of Company common stock, there is a long-term link between compensation paid to the named executive officers and any gain realized by the Company’s stockholders.

Tax Deductibility of Executive Compensation

A limitation on deductibility of compensation may occur under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code which generally limits the tax deductibility of compensation paid by a company to its chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated executive officers to $1,000,000. This limit does not apply to company ESOP and 401(k) Plan contributions. There is also an exception to the limit on deductibility for performance-based compensation that meets certain requirements.

The Company does not have a policy that limits the compensation of executive officers to the amount deductible for tax purposes; however, none of the Company’s executive officers have received compensation which would exceed the deductible amount.

12

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (Continued)

Recovery of Compensation

Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires the chief executive officer and chief financial officer to repay to the Company certain amounts received by such officers if the Company restates its financial statements as a result of financial reporting misconduct. The amounts to be repaid consist of (1) any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation received from the Company during the 12 month period following the filing of the financial statements in question and (2) any profits realized from the sale of the Company’s stock during that 12 month period. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may recover incentive compensation from others as a result of such financial reporting misconduct. In such a situation, the Board of Directors would exercise its judgment to determine what action it deems appropriate, including recovery of the incentive payments.

Compensation Compared to Peer Group Index Companies

The compensation earned by the named executive officers in the following Summary Compensation Table ranks at or near the bottom of compensation earned by comparable positions among the Company’s Peer Group Index companies included in the performance graphs in the Company’s Form 10-K and this Proxy Statement.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management. Based on this review and discussion with management, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

This report is submitted by the following members of the Compensation Committee at the end of 2010: Jane B. Finley, Sherrill W. Hudson and E. Vane McClurg, Chairman.

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

During the first half of 2010, non-employee directors received a quarterly retainer of $12,150 for serving on the Board of Directors, members of the Audit Committee received a quarterly retainer of $2,750 for serving on the Audit Committee and members of the Corporate Governance Committee received a quarterly retainer of $1,500 for serving on the Corporate Governance Committee. Beginning in the third quarter of 2010, non-employee directors received a quarterly retainer of $12,500 for serving on the Board of Directors, members of the Audit Committee received a quarterly retainer of $2,850 for serving on the Audit Committee and members of the Corporate Governance Committee received a quarterly retainer of $1,550 for serving on the Corporate Governance Committee. No fees are paid for attendance at Committee meetings. The Company pays for travel and lodging expenses for directors in connection with their attendance at various meetings. Previously, the Company periodically transported directors to and from such meetings in a Company airplane. This practice was discontinued in late 2009. During 2010, a Board meeting was held in Atlanta, Georgia so the directors departing from the corporate office in Lakeland, Florida were transported to the meeting in a Company airplane.

The Company has a Non-Employee Directors Stock Purchase Plan for the benefit of eligible directors. Under the plan, eligible non-employee directors may purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at the current fair market value during specific time periods subject to certain limitations. The provisions of this plan are generally the same as the provisions of the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

The following table summarizes non-employee director compensation for 2010. Directors that are employees of the Company do not receive additional compensation for service on the Board or as members of any of its committees.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

Management is responsible for the Company’s internal controls and the financial reporting process. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). The Audit Committee monitors and oversees these processes as described in the Audit Committee charter.

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2010.

(1) Fees for audit services include fees associated with the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements, annual audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and reviews of the Company’s quarterly financial statements.

(2) Fees for audit-related services include fees associated with the annual audit of employee benefit plans.

(3) Fees for tax services include fees associated with tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.

(4) Fees for other services include fees associated with agreed upon procedures not related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s financial statements.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the fees of KPMG LLP during the last fiscal year for audit and non-audit services and has determined that the provision of the non-audit services are compatible with the firm’s independence.

Under its charter and in accordance with the Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy, the Audit Committee must pre-approve all engagements of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy provides that the Audit Committee is required to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services performed by the independent registered public accounting firm in order to assure that the provision of such services will not impair its independence. The Audit Committee has delegated to the Chairman of the Audit Committee the authority to evaluate and approve engagements on behalf of the Audit Committee in the event that the need for pre-approval arises between Audit Committee meetings. If the Chairman approves any such engagements, he will report that approval to the Audit Committee at its next meeting. During 2010, each new engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm was approved in accordance with the policy.

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following performance graph sets forth the Company’s cumulative total stockholder return during the five years ended December 25, 2010, compared to the cumulative total return on the S&P 500 Index and a custom Peer Group Index including retail food supermarket companies⁽¹⁾. The Peer Group Index is weighted based on the various companies’ market capitalization. The comparison assumes $100 was invested at the end of 2005 in the Company’s common stock and in each of the related indices and assumes reinvestment of dividends.

The Company’s common stock is valued as of the end of each fiscal quarter. After the end of a quarter, however, shares continue to be traded at the prior valuation until the new valuation is received. The cumulative total return for the companies represented in the S&P 500 Index and the custom Peer Group Index is based on those companies’ calendar year end trading prices. Previously the Company included two performance graphs in its Proxy Statement, one based on the fiscal year end valuation (market price as of February 28, 2011) and one based on the fiscal year end trading price (market price as of the prior fiscal quarter). The Securities and Exchange Commission now requires that the performance graph be included as part of Item 5 of a company’s Form 10-K. The performance graph on page 8 of the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K is based on the Company’s fiscal year end trading price. However, because the Company’s fiscal year end valuation of the Company’s shares is effective after the date its Annual Report on Form 10-K was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a performance graph based on the fiscal year end valuation is not presented in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For comparative purposes, additional information is provided in the following performance graph based on the Company’s fiscal year end valuation based on its value as of February 28, 2011.

Comparison of Five-Year Cumulative Return Based Upon Fiscal Year End Valuation

(1) Companies included in the Peer Group are: A&P (not included for 2010 because A&P filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection but is included for 2006 through 2009), Ahold, Delhaize Group, Kroger, Safeway, Supervalu, Weis Markets and Winn-Dixie (not included for 2006 because Winn-Dixie filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection but is included for 2007 through 2010).
