Responsible Retailing
Many of our shops and distribution centres are family businesses - owned and run by people who live locally in the communities they serve. They have often been in the same family for many generations. As such, we care about the areas where we operate, our customers, our staff and the wider planet – we’re here for the long term. So, we are really invested in ensuring a sustainable future for everyone.
Find out more about how we are improving the sustainability of our products and our packaging including: animal welfare; sustainable sourcing; reducing plastic packaging and more information on recycling.
