WELCOME to WAITROSE

Here, we're more than employees – we're OWNERS.

That's why we're called PARTNERS.

And that's why we all go ABOVE and BEYOND to share our KNOWLEDGE and PASSION for QUALITY FOOD with people who matter most – YOU, our customers.

Because for us IT'S PERSONAL.

Food to FEEL GOOD about

Can good values be good value? And can eating in really be as good as dining out? We think so.
