As regular
Sainsbury's shoppers will know, the
traffic light labels on many Sainsbury's food products provide a quick and handy reference for determining the health-value of a product, but Sainsbury's also take great pride in providing
environmentally friendly products too. For instance, in June 2008, Sainsbury's became the first major supermarket to source its fresh and smoked salmon entirely from Scottish salmon farms approved by Freedom Food, and meeting the RSPCA's strict welfare standards for salmon.
Additionally, in 2007, Sainsbury's were the first UK supermarket to convert its banana production entirely to Fairtrade. Today more than half of the Fairtrade bananas sold in the UK are sold by Sainsbury's.
In fact, Sainsbury's aim to be environmentally responsible not just with regards to the food it sells, but in all aspects of the way the Sainsbury's business is operated, and encourages customers to be environmentally responsible too.
Much more than just an online version of your local
Sainsbury's, the
Sainsbury's Online Store is a one-stop shop for just about anything you can think of, including all the latest electrical appliances, and even Sainsbury's insurance and credit cards.

Much like any Sainsbury's store on the UK high-street, the
Sainsbury's Online Store provides much more than just a great range of groceries and award-winning selections of wine.
Where once the Sainsbury's online store was a mere shadow of the
Tesco online store, and a limited range of goods combined with a lacklustre website to drive many customers elsewhere, the new Sainsbury's website provides an excellent online shopping experience, with more products than you can shake a shopping trolley at!
However, more than just a great range of products, the new Sainsbury's website provides some great information on all manner of useful subjects. Not least are the useful Sainsbury's recipe guides and wine guides, but there is lots of useful tips and information on a wide range of other products too.
