Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation [Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Publix Super Markets, Inc. and subsidiaries (Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the accompanying statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire 2023 fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (Annual Report). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Text Block] | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable, approximates their respective carrying amounts due to their short-term maturity. The fair value of investments is based on market prices using the following measurement categories: Level 1 – Fair value is determined by using quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. Investments included in this category are equity securities (exchange traded funds). Level 2 – Fair value is determined by using other than quoted prices. By using observable inputs (for example, benchmark yields, interest rates, reported trades and broker dealer quotes), the fair value is determined through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of similar securities and matrix pricing of corporate, government-sponsored agency, state and municipal bonds by using pricing of similar bonds based on coupons, ratings and maturities. Investments included in this category are primarily debt securities (taxable and tax exempt bonds), including restricted investments in taxable bonds held as collateral. Level 3 – Fair value is determined by using other than observable inputs. Fair value is determined by using the best information available in the circumstances and requires significant management judgment or estimation. No investments are currently included in this category. Following is a summary of fair value measurements for investments as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022: Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (Amounts are in millions) July 1, 2023 $ 12,551 2,219 10,332 — December 31, 2022 11,558 2,137 9,421 — |

Unrealized losses related to debt securities are primarily due to increases in interest rates that occurred since the debt securities were purchased. The Company continues to receive scheduled principal and interest payments on these debt securities. (b) Equity Securities Equity securities are measured at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value recognized in earnings (fair value adjustment). The fair value of equity securities was $2.6 billion and $2.5 billion as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. (c) Investment Income (Loss) Net realized gain or loss on investments represents the difference between the cost and the proceeds from the sale of debt and equity securities. The net realized gain or loss on investments excludes the net gain or loss on the sale of equity securities previously recognized through the fair value adjustment, which is presented separately in the following table.

Consolidation Of Joint Ventures And Long Term Debt [Abstract] | |
Consolidation Of Joint Ventures And Long-Term Debt [Text Block] | Consolidation of Joint Ventures and Long-Term Debt From time to time, the Company enters into a joint venture (JV), in the legal form of a limited liability company, with real estate developers to partner in the development of a shopping center with the Company as the anchor tenant. The Company consolidates certain of these JVs in which it has a controlling financial interest. As of July 1, 2023, the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the consolidated JVs were $135 million and $39 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the consolidated JVs were $136 million and $40 million, respectively. The assets are owned by and the liabilities are obligations of the JVs, not the Company, except for a portion of the long-term debt of certain JVs guaranteed by the Company. The JVs are financed with capital contributions from the members, loans and/or the cash flows generated by the JV owned shopping centers once in operation. Total earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests for 2023 and 2022 were immaterial. The Company’s involvement with these JVs does not have a significant effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s long-term debt results primarily from the consolidation of loans of certain JVs and loans assumed in connection with the acquisition of certain shopping centers with the Company as the anchor tenant. No loans were assumed during the six months ended July 1, 2023 or June 25, 2022. Maturities of JV loans range from June 2026 through April 2027 and have variable interest rates based on a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) index plus 200 to 210 basis points. Maturities of assumed shopping center loans range from April 2024 through January 2027 and have fixed interest rates ranging from 4.5% to 7.5%. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Retirement Plan [Text Block] | Retirement PlanThe Company has a trusteed, noncontributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for the benefit of eligible employees. Since the Company’s common stock is not traded on an established securities market, the ESOP includes a put option for shares of the Company’s common stock distributed from the ESOP. Shares are distributed from the ESOP primarily to separated vested participants and certain eligible participants who elect to diversify their account balances. Under the Company’s administration of the ESOP’s put option, if the owners of distributed shares desire to sell their shares, the Company is required to purchase the shares at fair value for a specified time period after distribution of the shares from the ESOP.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Publix Super Markets, Inc. and subsidiaries (Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the accompanying statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire 2023 fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (Annual Report). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
