DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION

 

At Ingles Markets, we know we are so much more than a grocery store. We are made up of associates, customers, and vendors. Each individual is as unique and different as the next individual, but our differences are what make us better, stronger, and unified. Ingles Markets supports and encourages diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout our Corporate Office, Distribution Center, Retail Stores, and within each community we are located.

Our Pledge

Ingles hires great people with great attitudes and teaches them lifelong skills through on-the-job training. We focus on inclusion at all steps of the hiring process, from utilizing gender-neutral language in our job postings to making our associates feel welcome in the workplace for years to come.

Our Commitment

While we don't have all the answers, we do believe we can play a bigger role to help fight stereotypes. We begin by looking within. We will enhance our training and awareness programs for all our associates. We need to face our emotions, understand our biases, and open our hearts. We need and value people with different backgrounds, different races, and different abilities.
