'''Lakeland''' is a city in [[Florida]], located roughly midway between [[Tampa]] and [[Orlando]].
Though it has been a suburb of both Tampa and Orlando, it is a decent-size city in its own right.
It is best known as the headquarters for '''Publix Supermarkets''', one of the largest American grocery chains (one of a very few having over 1,000 locations) and one of the largest employee-owned businesses of any type. Publix is world-renowned for exceptional customer service, thus allowing it to compete effectively with the much larger [[Wal-Mart]].
