J.Sainsbury plc was founded in London in 1869. Being one of the UK's oldest retailers, you might say we've had more time to perfect our offering... Developing our range from high-street basics, to one of the most comprehensive retailing businesses in the UK.
From our core ranges - food and groceries, we've moved over the years into clothing (the UK's 7th largest), pharmacy, finance and even energy! We bring passion to everything we do and a Sainsbury's unique way of working - with values at the heart of our business.
These 'values' make us different to any other Supermarket retailer, committed to doing it better, looking after our suppliers, our team and our customers, whilst delivering an outstanding level of financial succes.
