Through our Heritage Months, we recognize the history and contributions of various cultures by providing education and context as well as employee recognition, deeply rooted in storytelling around food, family, and tradition.
In 1981, Congress authorized and requested the president to proclaim the week beginning March 7, 1982 as “Women’s History Week.” Throughout the next five years, Congress continued to pass joint resolutions designating a week in March as “Women’s History Week.” After years of petitioning by the National Women’s History Project, Congress designated the month of March 1987 as “Women’s History Month.” Every president since has proclaimed March as such.

We asked our employees to tell us about a woman at Wegmans who has helped them learn and grow, or who has shown a strong commitment to high standards.
“Kamaria and Cara lead with positivity and work towards developing our team daily. Cara listens to us, she respects us, she cares about every one of us, and she empowers our team to make the decisions that will help us to execute successful events, while also making continuous improvements. Kamaria has helped me to learn about myself as an employee, as a coworker, and as a person outside of my work life. She has taken the time to understand who I am as a person so that she can help me to the best of her ability. We all have built trust with one another and have built work relationships that help us to have successful events and give our guests the most enjoyable experiences possible.”
“Jackie’s warmth and positive attitude affect everyone she comes in contact with and all the teams she has led in this company! Her strong values and warm demeanor have been an asset to Wegmans. Her tireless work effort has been proven by opening stores and giving her best at every position she has held here at Wegmans. From having weekly pre-meals to running contests with her servers to see who could get the most appetizers sold! She just exudes joy and always comes up with great ideas on how to make a product sell. I have worked with Jackie for 16 years and it has been my honor to know her!”
“Meera has always demonstrated the utmost professionalism, especially in the area of customer service. She has always emphasized politeness and direct, open listening for every customer no matter the situation. Her main objectives from the beginning to the end of a shift are compassion for the customers, representing Wegmans with a smile, genuine greetings, and remaining engaged from start to finish for every transaction. She encourages patience and timely responses to every situation. Meera is a standup employee and an example of what it means to have a strong mindset and an excellent work ethic.”
