As a UK retailer, we know that British sourcing matters to us and to our customers. Our customers value knowing where their food has come from and British sourcing means contributing positively to the national economy while reducing food transport miles. Driving sales is an important part of supporting our farmers, growers and producers in the UK. But it isn't just about the sales. This is why we have evolved our British commitment to focus on sustainable investment. It can also enhance the freshness and shelf life of food which is good for customers, our business and the environment.
