SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability for life

Our food touches the lives of millions of people, from our customers to those who make, grow and pack our products. As Partners (co-owners of our business) we are passionate about every step of its journey, from field to fork. We believe that by always being fair, never wasteful and transforming the lives of those who create, eat and enjoy it - our food can be a force for good

Packaging, Waste & Plastics

The impact of plastics on the environment is a serious concern for both Partners and our customers. With this in mind, we're committed to finding new ways to reduce packaging and waste wherever we find it

Tips for remembering your reusable bags

Following the news that our 5p single-use plastic bags will be phased out by March 2019, we asked behaviour-change consultant Samantha-Louise Stallard for her top tips to help you remember your reusable bags

Eliminating unnecessary plastic

We are committed to making all our own-brand packaging widely-recycled, reusable or home compostable by 2023

Tackling food waste

Our food is too good to waste so any edible food that we can't sell is donated to local charities and good causes

Recycling

Customers can recycle a range of items in our stores, including carrier bags, batteries and waste electrical

Farming & Fishing

We build long-term relationships with farmers and producers who share our commitment to sustainable and ethical practices and the welfare of workers

Community & Health

We are dedicated to promoting the well-being of our customers, Partners, and the communities in which we work and trade
