With a history of more than 140 years, and close to 800 stores throughout the UK,
Sainsburys is one of the most recognised high-street names in the UK.
From its very first shop in Drury Lane, London, in 1869, Sainsburys has come a long way, and now operates close to 800 stores in the United Kingdom, with over 2,000 suppliers, more than 30,000 products, and with a staff of more than 150,000.
Now, with the advent of online shopping, Sainsburys is making its name in online retail too, and offers a real alternative to other online stores, such as
Tesco, which has previously been dominant in this sector for several years.
Recognising that customers are increasingly price-conscious,
Sainsburys focus on making healthy food affordable, while inspiring customers to cook, and at
Sainsburys Online Store you can take advantage of the same great range of products, including fresh fruit and vegetables, as you can in your local store.
However, although Sainsburys work hard to make its products as healthy as possible, without sacrificing quality or taste, Sainsburys are also committed to providing customers with easy-to-understand labelling, and helping customers make informed choices about the food and drink they purchase.
Sainsburys strong ethical approach has been at the heart of the Sainsburys business since the first Sainsburys store was opened way back in 1869. More than 140 years later, Sainsburys values still provide the framework for how business gets done at Sainsburys.
However, although shoppers are increasingly price-conscious - especially during challenging economic times - ethical and environmental issues remain important for customers. Fortunately, Sainsburys believe that by considering the wider social, environmental and economic impacts of the Sainsburys business, it's possible to meet shoppers' expectations - and even exceed them - by acting responsibly on their behalf.
