what we believe
Good people, working toward a common goal, can accomplish anything they set out to do. Our goal is to be the very best at serving the needs of our customers, and every action we take is made with this in mind. But this goal only happens if we fulfill the needs of our own people. That’s why we pledge continuous improvement to our customers and our people, and we make the unwavering commitment: Every Day You Get Our Best.

our stores
Wegmans is a regional supermarket chain and is one of the largest private companies in the U.S.
Our goal is to simplify your shopping. We check prices at other retailers every week so you don’t have to run around chasing 1-week deals. Buy What You Want When You Want It
We believe in partnering with farms and suppliers near our stores who share our family values to provide the best-tasting food that is sustainably sourced on the East Coast.
In 1991, we launched Food You Feel Good About and have been removing “artificials” from our ingredient lists, like certain colors, flavors, preservatives and sweeteners, ever since.
