Wegmans takes top spot among retailers on Fortune's Best Companies to Work For list
Great Place To Work and Fortune media have recognized Wegmans Food Markets Inc. as one of the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For in 2026. This is Wegmans 29th year being named to this prestigious list, this year coming in at fifth place.
The 100 Best Companies to Work For list honors companies that build a high-trust workplace environment, measured through Great Place To Work’s proprietary survey platform. Confidential feedback from more than 1.3 million employees in the U.S. is matched against HR data from participating companies. Only companies with consistently high survey responses across the 60 statements that comprise the Trust Index Survey earn placement on this exclusive list.
“We are incredibly honored to once again be recognized as one of the 100 Best Companies to Work For,” said Colleen Wegman, president and CEO of Wegmans Food Markets. “Our people continue to bring our values to life in ways that create a true sense of belonging — where everyone is respected, supported and appreciated for who they are. We’ve always believed that the best way to serve our customers is by first being a great place to work, and year after year we hear from our communities that Wegmans feels like a happy, welcoming place. We couldn’t be more proud of our employees for the passion and care they bring every day.”
“Trust in the organization is a leading indicator of business performance,” says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “When employees trust their leaders, they are more willing to give extra effort, embrace innovation like new AI tools, and deliver a better experience to customers.”
In 2025, Wegmans also ranked as a Best Workplace for Parents, Best Workplace for Women, and was ranked No. 1 on the Fortune Best Workplaces in Retail list. In addition, it was named to the PEOPLE Companies That Care list.
