Costco is maybe the least capitalist company you can find nowadays
They're still a publicly-traded company and are thus beholden to their shareholders, but they seem to have done ok in spite of that. I'm certain it's only a matter of time though - eventually new leadership will come in who will only care about maximizing profits.

Surely employee owned companies like Bob’s Red Mill fit the bill better?
Okay, fair, Bob's Red Mill is a very special exception
